I have seen a ton of them marthon dogs pass up a ton of hogs on his way to his famous mile !
Lmao !
Sounds like you've hunted with a ton of culls then. How far a dog will range out has nothing to do with how fast it gets there...only that when most dogs loop around and are already hanging around back at the wheeler, that the dog is still out hunting and getting deeper doing it. A dog that frequently passes up or misses hogs is nothing more than a cull....marathon dog or not.
