" These few and far between oklahoma hogs are the reason im trying my hound pup,hell im even thinking of another one too if i have the room,its time to change somethin around here,the curs are just not ranging enough to get it done. "

This is why I'm tired of the mouthing off about hounds, there are places where curs just don't work as well- curs have there place, but so do hounds. I have high hopes for your little blue dog Jimmy, I've got 2 walkers in the yard right now, there coon dogs but they might get some hog action pretty soon anyway

   Mr. Waylon, I like your fire and I bet if somebody hit you in the head with an ax all they would do is ruin a good ax, and i mean that in a good way with all due respect. I liked T Bobs statement, but ! My father and grandfather were houndsmen when hunting coons and squirrels. When hunting hogs or working cows they used curs but to give away the family secret alot of those curs had a little hound in them ! Im still hunting some of that blood today and their hard to beat. I guess what Im trying to say is. I like a little hound in my curs, but when their born I want them to shut their mouth and come out yeller !

when I hear of a good hunting line of cur dogs the first thing that crosses my mind is a touch of "walker" in the line...but then I believe most good line of hunting dogs have a certain percentage of hound.

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...

Most good, hard hunting lines of cur dogs will have some hound bred in somewhere down the line.  There...I said it!   Grin. Heck, I know a lot of the East Texas black mouths did.  Rumor even has it that the YBM could have originated as a black and tan / mastiff type cross.  If someone thinks they have an antique line of curs with absolutely no hound in them, chances are they probably just haven't traced them back quite far enough.

I always suspected my dogs had hound bred in way down the line not only based on looks but also because of the "unconventional and houndy" way they hunt...not to mention they always bred true to color...either yellow or saddleback.  It wasn't until just this past year that we confirmed the crossing in of trigg hound wwwaaayyy down the line.

  Me too Reuben. But I want them to be quiet until their looking at the hog. I dont mind them yipping 4 or 5 times when one breaks but I cant take a bunch of bawling on hogs. I go coon hunting with my friend every now and then and I do love to hear his walkers sound off when their running a coon. I think hounds are awesome dogs when used for what their bred for, and theres no better nose for a cold trail in a dry climate. I think a persons preference to dogs has alot to do with the climate they live in, how big the properties are they hunt, and what they grew up with. Like I said, I like a touch of hound in my Yellers !

" waylon you got alot of pent up frustration you been gone to long good to have ya back " Good to be back buddy.

I see the wind starting to shift in another direction on this topic, perhaps we can find middle ground after all.

I like them dogs your breeding up half breed, I think about 1/4 cur 3/4 hound will work for ya, you might get tight mouthed hounds that way.

I knew there were some hound fans here, they just needed some one to fire the first shot is all.

Waylon, you know there's one type of hound I would like to try but I hear it takes years to get ahold of one!  laugh Wink

I hope you ain't forgot about our little hound dog secret. Wink

2 of the best dogs ive ever seen hunt were walker/bmc mixes. I think most people are getting into the trends such as bmc ymc for strike dogs and pits for catch dogs. Every and then its nice to have a change. Ive had muts catch and muts strike but yet again this is just my opinion  Grin
