I understand what yall  are saying but the words you use are jacked.  Strike, Bay, RCD, and Catch.  Finder, Holder????   You Texas boys are spoiled with that dry land and huge fourwheeling properties.  Yeah we have those down here but the magority of us don't hunt them unless we get some special invite.  Fl curs have changed.  Used to be a "do it all" dog now guys are ruining the lines cause all the newbies.  No experience, accidental breeding, dog peddl'n.  Used to be you could have good dogs given to you.   Now the market is flooded with newbies offering up biig bucks for the wrong dogs.  Plenty of capable dogs are ruined due to lazy dogmen.  They expect the dog to just do it.  It takes training.  Trial and error, experience and learning from mentors.  I have my own forum for educational purposes and trying to keep the young guys on the right track but this whole entitlement generation don't want to work for it.  For a dog to reach it's potential, you must have a plan.  You got to want it!  Cull hard and don't sell your chiteaters!  New to this site.  Don't want to sound pessimistic but it don't take a perfect dog to produce hogs.  Many breeds will do it.  Certain dogs will serve you best on different terrain.  I have had plenty of young buck come out with their "finished dogs at 1 year old.  Couldn't catch a hobbled hog.  But they know everything and never shut the heck up.  Texting while their hunting and showing off pictures of hogs they didn't catch.  Once you find you a pack that works for where you hunt, you have to step back and think to yourself........self......I need to protect these dogs so I can have a decent line.   No.... everyone wants Now Now Now.  If you don't want your dogs to get beat up don't hunt hogs with dogs.  It happens!  Get you some bay dogs that will run you across the county with your atv and shoot.  If you want to have HOGDOGS.  One month ago I lost my bad a** catch dog, got my lead dog stitched, lost a puppy to severed achilles and my RCD got 150 stitches.  All in a matter of minutes.  The Boar hog beat me and my pack.  The challenge is to get back ASAP an d figure that badboy out.   For months before that we had nothing but minor flesh wounds here and there.  It takes time and experience.  You know where to get the best dogs.  Florida!  Man my fingers are tired and I'm up way too late!  All Do respect to everybody who don't fall into my criticism.
