I like my dog to be on the ear solid, no shaking or tearing, just anchored down. I think a dog on each ear has very good control. Not saying two dogs on the jaws isnt better, i have never seen it so i wouldnt know. Just know what works for me. And for the most part i wouldnt even call it CONTROL. Just a good spot to grab and hang on till i get there.
The way i think most of us around here hunts is with either 1 or at the most 2 catchdogs. I run 1 catch dog and have a cur that will be on the other ear every time once the bulldog catches. This has always seemed to work, so I will probably always do it like that. We sell alot of the hogs we catch, so the damage to them needs to be as minimal as possible, which is why i like my dogs on the ears and not the head or body.
I know that hog428 and BigAinabuilt run pretty much ALL find/catch dogs. Thats working for them, so thats what they do. But i would not call that control, more of a dog pile!! But i guess it works!!
I see it like this:
If 1 person grabs you, you can still put up a good fight.
If 2 people grab you, they can hold you pretty good.
If 5 people grab you, your not going anywhere!!!
