EAST TEXAS HOG DOGGERS FORUM

Who has the best proven line of curs? I want to get a good one. Im mostley worried about what's in its genetics.and how consistent the line produces more than the individual dogs ability . Also give me your vote on who you think is the most knowledgeable on bmc's I want to talk to them.i'm tired of hunting trash and I've made up my mind to get some dogs that got that little extra that you can see even as pups. I got a real nice pup from donald breckenridge and had two more that got killed. I can really tell the difference in them and the ones I been hunting. I want some good dogs like that of my own. If it takes a few years to raise some dogs like I want im going to get em.I want something I put together myself kinda. Selfish? Maybe. However that's what I want but I want to start with the best proven lines I can get. Thanks in advance

that to me is the best way...takes a little longer but you will be happier with the results...

Perry dogs !!

you will more than likely get a different answer for every poster on this forum. Curr lines range from one end of the spectrum to the other. My advise is hunt with different people and make the decision after seeing the different lines of dogs in the woods. Decide before hand what  you are looking for before going into the woods it will make your decision on purchasing the right line of dogs that much eaiser on you. Good luck and happy hunting

Solid price on them dogs as well.

I said solid, I shoulda said steep  ;D

dose any one have a line that will olny bark.  when. pig is stoped and bayed up

x2,,,,,I'm told you gotta train pups to ONLY bark at a hog on sight. NO MATTER WHAT< if the pup is in the kennel, chain, etc...dont let em bark at N E THING!!!! Even at 3 in the morning, go whip em unless there is a hog in the yard, and honeslty-who wants to do that? :-\ >:(

Not exactly accurate....there are more curs that are silent until face to face with the pig than there are that trail bark (are open).

I don't claim to have hunted with a huge number of different curs or lines, but I'd say Atleast 80% of the ones I've seen barked somewhat on track... Most would yip behind one... but I don't claim to have hunted with good dogs either!!  ;D

Just my opinion, but I find this funny...a dog is gonna do what a dog is bred for and what it's instincts tell him to.  You can do all the whipping at 3 am you want, I don't much think it'll change a thing, but I'm just an Internet hog dogger.

Most of the completely silent Cur lines ain't completely silent  :laugh:

Sorry boys, let me be more specific. The curs I've hunted behind would not open up when they hit a track. They may yip (locate) then shut up till face to face. If they were on the hogs butt (could see him) same goes, they would yip. I've just never hunted behind one that opened as soon as they hit a hot track.

I may have misunderstood the question.

Haha

Ain't nothing wrong with a trashy, mouthy cur.  Those are typically the ones that get out from under your feet and go somewhere. Plus its handy when your thousand dollar tracking system takes a crap.  

I like silent ones .......but they are few and far between plus hell to follow without technology if they are long range.

The true dead silent ones usually hunt as far as you spit. 

thats exactly what i thought when i was told that.....

wait miles mine are silent and dont stay under my feet, just on my hood lol

Haha. TOUCHE'

You want a solid line....Go to Bob Cox or Rodney Spivey.

I've never hunted behind Cox's line but I like the way they look. Built real nice.

Heck, they are 90% silent once they bail.....those are some of the curs I'm talkin about  ;D

Yup very well built and hunt as good as they look.....Rodney and Bob are partners..pretty much same dogs, anything out of tank or Tyson works well...theyve started adding some clue stuff and it's working real well.

Hell them Bennett dogs r silent don't even bark at the bay

Monty will do right by you and has some solid running dogs.

there range is 400 and rough as hell. just ask the people hunting them, fonzie, tmatt , johny brown. or come by the house and ill show you . you may not even like them. there short range rough dogs, ill let them talk for me, and i no my yellers arent the best but they fit my style

I would love to have one of them Bennett dogs on my yard...and hopefully will sooner or later

. sounds like the style of dog I like.  short range n rough. do yours.bark  olny when face to face with hog  or when chasing also

only when looking at one
but there are alot of curs out there that hunt far there than mine.
ill just say mine will dang sure stop one
look around and hunt with some, i like the ben jordan dogs my self
