my buddys gyp, straight mtn cur. she will not stop hunting rain or shine, heat or cold. when all the other dogs are at your feet shes still hunting. extremely smart and great handle. Ive seen her wind hogs in their bed from a half mile( its mountainous here so the wind funnels) She roads, strikes off the quad, will jump out of a moving vehicle on the hwy if she smells a hog, consistently produces hogs when other dogs dont.
sounds like she is a good one...I never put a tape measure to it and I didn't have a Garmin back then but I have seen 1/4 mile to half mile regular enough and a few times I thought it could have been a mile...the right lines of mt curs are simply amazing dogs...some come with a ton of grit as well...some will actually hunt themselves to death in the heat...
