Runnin hogs or time to raise the bar?

Well, T-Bob, since you ask... I plan on being closer behind them more often, as in closer to them the majority of the hunt... If they start ranging out really good on a track you have to stick with em. That way if they do get it stopped for even a short period of time, you can let the CD loose and get the job done. I have been out run here lately more than I'd like to admit, and I feel that is what I will have to do to get them STOPPED for good. Another idea, is figure out why they are not holding the bay... if you can see why the bay is breaking or why he/she isn't stopping the hog for long enough to get the rest of the dogs to him/her then maybe you/we can adjust accordingly. JMO... I'd have to say the number of hogs we got stopped last year compared to this year isn't looking good. But I guess that's the way the cookie crumbles...
