For me and the way we hunt is 0-200 short 200-600 or so med 600+ long.  Now this is just my definition because I hunt shorter range dogs

well I will put my opinion in but out here in nm and west tx hunting is way diffrent for we do not have very much thick brush but id say anything under 600 is close and medium 3/4 mile and long over 3/4 mile
note we have farm land in sections wich is a mile x a mile square

that makes sense what you are saying...but here in southeast texas a medium range dog 300 to 600 yard dog about gets us in trouble. But a medium range dog can go miles to put a hog at the other end of the tracks.

It's seems to vary by region. For example, I used to with some fellas down in South Texas years back...

Short range... beside or behind the truck.

Medium range... in the headlights.

Long range... out past the headlights.

 ;D ;D ;D

Hahaha. Might I add a medium range finished dog is one who has learned how far I can accurately throw a rock and hunts right outside that range

having good dogs is half of it...Having the land and hogs to put those dogs on on a regular basis is the other half. ;)

Believe he is reffering to the dogs starting what they finish.
