My hunting partner and I have 11 dogs between us right now. Some are totally silent and some will open after they jump a hog or if a hog breaks. I can honestly say that I can't see a major difference in the the percentage of hogs caught between these 2 different type dogs.
Sometimes the ones that yip on track irritate me and I think I wish they'd shut the hell up because they're just pushing the hog harder. Sometimes I wish the silent ones would yip a little so I'd know if they were still on a hot track or if they'd fallen out of a race.
In the end, they both find, stop, bay, and produce hogs. I don't really think the opening or yipping on track pushes a hog any harder than a silent fast dog that a hog knows is right behind him.
To each his own in my book.
