RIP EMILY

Great lookin dogs and pups!!! 

Good deal! good lookin hound

Good reply!! poor mack hahaha

Didnt mean to get off topic Mike sorry about that YELLOWBLACKMASK!

All I was simply trying to say is my dogs will do a variety of different things. Wilbanks your right there not 100 percent trash broke, But like I said I never had a problem with them running or treeing anything while we are hog hunting. I believe they know were lookin for hogs when they get in that dog box and put that Garmin on.

I dont know much about who has better yellow dogs out of Oklahoma or Tx but I do know Oklahoma is gettin that tail whooped against Florida State  and maybe the Longhorns will pick it up this year. lol

I do know that Randy Wright breeds for the all around dog. If everyone who buys his line of dogs followed his methods then the majority of those Ben dogs would be top all around dogs. The problem is that when someone gets a pup that is a cull they breed it because it is a ben bred dog and they will get there money back and then some, thus, there goes the line of dogs that Randy has culled hard for.

One of my hunting buddies dad raises quite a few PBR bulls, and he just traded Randy a few bulls for quite a few dogs....
Included in this deal was a "STUD" dog, a "BROOD" bitch

According to him, the Stud and the Brood have had no type of hunting experience... So why are they being used for breeding?
They may be out of proven lines, but neither have proved themselves...

If hes breeding dogs with no experience, exactly how "proven" is his line??

That easy, his line is 100% proven.....  It's proven to make $$$$$

Exactly!!! 

Most of these big breeders are breeding for papers and looks, which is worthless in the woods, besides having a good looking dog under your feet.... 

I forgot to mention that a young well started cowdog was included in the deal, and he wont even look at a cow.. 
I wonder if he is out of the Stud or Brood they got??  I may have to look into this alittle more...

You need to open your eyes and look at it alot more kid, Larry Parker, Gary Campbell, Randy Wright, the list goes on......all use Brood gyps. I know alot of ppl that do this and produce consistent hog dogs.

[I consider them trash broke]

  All of them will find and bay hogs, cattle, they will tree coons or possums, they would probly run a bear if I put them on it  I consider them trash broke because when I go to hunt hogs they know were hunting hogs.

-No I dont put them on a possum track or a coon track purposely 

       So how can you consider them trash broke if they tree coons and possums when thats not what you purposely put them on??? 

Your post are like the Starburst commercials, a big contradiction... 

Well while your watching Starburst commercials little guy im out hunting my trashy dogs. Im not gonna lie and say my dogs are completly trash broke. I like to think they are but if a deer runs right in front of them they will chase it a bit. If were not hog hunting and Im letting them run around they will chase a possum or coon if its in my yard.

What about your dogs? I never hear you talk about them? Saw your FB you look like Opie Taylor off Andy Griffith NO hog pics, NO dog pics. What are you one of these internet Cowboys little Trent.

Another thing I saw you talking about Randy Wright's dogs on the last page, have you had one and culled it? Have you tried several and they didnt work? please let me know your opinion on his dogs since your the expert. I personally know Randy and talk to him once in awhile. I know he breeds for $$$$ but he also has a few good dogs.

Good hunt and I like that black dog myself!

x2 lets hear some details about Highbawl

Lets go to the woods then, just me and you... no other dogs but yours.

You leg it, flip it, tie it, cut it if its a boar hog, and let it go (By your self)

I'll get the dogs off

You act like this doesnt happen? you hunt with a few people I do just ask around if you dont believe man. You know Tyler messed his hand up BAD and we hunt at least twice a week. Who do you think hobbles and releases the hog? Who do you think cuts the hog? Like I said I hunt 2 to 3 times a week ALWAYS year round. Rain, sleet or snow, with sumone either at my place or there's I dont need to get into a pissing match. I havnt sold my pack and gotten out then gotten back in I consistently have dogs and hunt.

BUDDDDY!!!!!! How many times have I hit you up to come hunt??? your always moanin about gas. I got find dogs and a CD bring your HUGE roll of mule tape and let's do it! you know I dont hunt alone. You havent even seen my new woods truck! 

John why you even on here???  you sold all your dogs to become a Cowboy. I hunt at LEAST 3 times a week, year round. I have a 10,000 acre lease and 6 dogs if I wanna throw my opinion around with these Tx boys, im gonna. Im no expert by any means. Just a guy with an opinion.

The only time im not honest is about fishing  Other then that I know what my dogs will and wont do. There not the best in any means but they suit me and find hogs.

  All of them will find and bay hogs, cattle, they will tree coons or possums, they would probly run a bear if I put them on it  I consider them trash broke because when I go to hunt hogs they know were hunting hogs. If I take them to cattle they know were herding cattle. I expect them to be gamey hunting dogs with the want to hunt WHATEVER I PUT THEM ON. I hunt places with cows and hogs and they know when that Garmin is around there neck were lookin for POPPA HOG!!!! 

Couple questions -

Do you purposely put them on a possum track? If so, why?
Do you use the dogs to go out and find cattle or just herd cattle in a pen or pasture?
Do you not put a Garmin on them when they are out finding cattle?

The point I was getting at was more along what Reuben was saying. I dont have 8 different dogs to do 8 differnt things.

-No I dont put them on a possum track or a coon track purposely 
-They do not go and find cattle, Im not a rancher or a cow expert. I just hunt a few places with cows and wanted to see what they would do. I believe my lead dog came from old cow dog stock. 
-No garmin needed when there herding cows, it would only say NEAR.

I prefer a dog with a lot of hunt and right now I currently own 3 full blooded Catahoulas. Two came from LA and the other from a ranch in S FL.  All of them will find and bay hogs, cattle, they will tree coons or possums, they would probly run a bear if I put them on it  I consider them trash broke because when I go to hunt hogs they know were hunting hogs. If I take them to cattle they know were herding cattle. I expect them to be gamey hunting dogs with the want to hunt WHATEVER I PUT THEM ON.

Matt, i'm your buddy, but I've got to call BS on this. Your two catahoulas from louisiana haven't found and bayed a hog on their own and you haven't owned Skeeter for more than 6 months. Have you caught a hog with only your dogs on the ground yet?

John you gotta start hunting with me more buddy, You cant expect to come hunt twice a year and expect to know what my dogs will and wont do.  Yes I have found and bayed a hog a few times with only Bubba on the ground I cant give you names of ppl that are there. The gyp isint far behind if the conditions are right. I havent owned Skeeter long but have hunted with him several years when my buddy owned him and the guy before that. I know what he will and wont do. All 3 dogs have bayed cattle, not going and finding just herding and grouping.

I know down here in FL alot of Cow dog culls are used for hog hunting. Most of them are real rough medium range curs from whats left of old stock. Alot of ranches will not part with there dogs or puppys for any amount of money. If your lucky they may Stud a male out to a friend or close partner. Im by no means a Cow dog expert but I grew up in Central and South FL where cattle and ranching is popular and have great respect for a good Cow dog. Most I have seen will work cattle or a hog but tend to prefer one or the other. As Reuben said some Ranches are smaller and jus need dogs to keep them close and move them, not necessarily go find them in thick under brush. My buddy is on several ranches as big as 30,000 acre's where the dog has to hunt and find the stray cattle. It is by no means any easy task. His dog excels at hog or cattle and is a BMC probly one of the best I have been around.
