We typically send two bulldogs to each bay unless the cur dogs have it squawling already. We all say we like loose baying dogs, but we each still have a rougher dog in the pack (except circle c - he has sure enough bay dogs). We still hunt what we like, but we also know that anything can happen in the woods and you occasionally need that rougher dog.

Anyway, we generally have 3 or more catchdogs per hunt. There are too many times we get on split bays and groups. I can't think of a single catchdog in our group that is a pain to lead anywhere (God bless old Meat Head's soul). In my opinion, you can never have too many cd's on a hunt because there is no law saying you have to unclip everything at each bay. Just my opinion and what works for us. Everyone is different.

At least I'm successful at doing nothing right. I guess it could be worse.
