I have a buddy who has a pit he's real proud of that hesitates before he catches then he almost always goes under hog and catches front armpit on opposite side (so long as the hog doesn't bust while he hesitates).it locks the hog down but as was already said the good strike dogs are left with an ear and get cut down.Its also alot harder to flip a big hog because dogs pull and weight are against it. I hunt on foot and am severely winded alot when i get to bay, so i don't have a lot of oomph left when i get there....this happens nearly every time we go and its got cutters, pit never gets cut. i had my dogs cut up bad this winter because of it. I've got my own bulldogs now so thats that but it's just a nice feeling to have a bull dog per ear when climbing into a brush pile or crawling in to thickets.I will use whats available but I too prefer ear.That head is where the danger is,it needs to be controlled. Im a little chicken on a boar but most times with a bulldog on each ear i dont even feel threatened at all.
