If you have more than 2-3 total dogs it is impossible to lead them out of the woods.
You lead your strike/bay dogs?
When I come off a bay and wanna go home, I'd better catch my dogs or they'll have relayed and theyll end up a mile out bayed off. It makes it extremely difficult hunting more than one dog and a bulldog and having to walk out 1/2 mile deep after catching a hog.
