Cutter Bay how open are your hounds? and would you say they have some grit to them??? I use to not be much on hounds but have come to respect a good one. If you got the land to run them there hard to beat. Also do you turn 1 dog out on the track and let him finish alone pr pack a bunch of hounds to them? Just curious. If your ever close to Tallahassee let me know I would like to see some good ones run! Maybe I could sneak a cur in there
My hounds do not babble, but when they strike in, they are as open as it gets. Yes, I feel they have smart grit to them. I can run them single, or by the pack. Often times I hunt multiple dogs at once as it let's me work more at a time, which is scarce enough as it is. Generally 1-2 of my hounds will bay quicker than those plus 1 or 2 more. The hogs are not too threatened with only 1-2. More makes them want to keep going. Often a single dog will relay onto the next after I show up at the bay. While we finish up, the single will be lining the next victim out. If the weather is right, I'll let them go. It is not, I'll call them off.
