It depends on the bay, if we have a hog that is ruinning on us and we have bayed the hog numerous times then we will turn the cd loose as soon as we determin its a hog and we are tired of breaking bays, so we will turn loose on the next SOLID bay.
Solid- there is 2 or more dogs baying the hog for at least 5-10 seconds .
Generally on the first origanal bay we make sure that it is a hog with a solid bay and try and get to at least 50 yards and at least one guy sneak in and watch and as soon as the cd hits the pig we r on top of it, Because we want to get the dogs off asap if it is a good hog because the curs tend to try and jump in as soon as the cd hits the hog and that seems to be when we get the nicks and cuts. So we try and get them off and rolled out asap. This also helps them in them to get out of a caught hog and find the next one.
