Hunt for its handler
Adjust it's style to fit the handlers
Smell any track a hound would, BUT be smart enough to pass some of them in pursuit of more fruitful track
Work the track faster and more quietly and some can use their nose faster than a hog can use his legs
These Curs have better stock sence and know how to apply pressure better than most hounds.
Know that after game is caught its time to roll out and find the rest of the herd or sounder
They are generally better at coming back and loading on command
They have better homing sence than hounds
They start sooner
They are smarter
They are prettier

Start by saying this is all from my experience no offense meant to anyone. go top to bottom here
Hunts for one handler i have seen 10 times as many curs that change hands an will not hunt for a different owner while hounds hunt for most anyone that is a down fall on the cur to me.
Ever dog hound or cur alike adjust to the way the handler hunts if the dog isd good
Curs can not smell any track a hound can hunted behind bad ass curs and i consistantly watch curs run by tracks that my plotts pick up a cur once in awhile may have a nose like a hound but few and far between.
Seen just as many hounds roll out as curs do so that a mute point
Never seen a cur be smarter actually most are dumb as box of rocks Ive seen my plotts work a track for 20 mins in a 100 yds circle curs burn as one way nd plott bays 20 yds the other direction. Pretty much everything you said i have seen the opposite direction 90% of the time and i have hutned behind some damn good bmc dogs. Not a yellow man and probably never will be
