In woods IMO a dog that cast farther is a plus loose is also a plus due to the fact it may be a lot farther walk to get to them or creeks or other obstacles that might slow u down. Crop and crp combo's tend to either allow faster or less restricted access in this case the previous dogs will work but so will short range rough dogs. If I had my ideal pack for the type hunting u are gonna be doing I would have 2 or 3 loose long range dogs and 2 or 3 rough as a corn cob dogs and hunt them however needed or according to situation. If I was u trying to run one set of dogs I would go with mid range dogs that were gritty but not real rough. Cat cur crosses should fit the bill. Straight curr's would probly also do the job. I would be looking for dogs that will work in that 300 range with a lot of bottom. I probly didn't help but u hunt in the same type areas I do and this is the type I would want if we didn't have so many track stars.
