No no no. Read my post I said what I have I would call  average not awesome. Called averaged to what real hog hunters that know what hog dogs are. So probably better than what rookies call average just like a rookie calls a finished dog a dog that has only caught one hog in a year. So our definitions are probably not the same. I don't think half on these board has what your describing.  You can't downplay someone who has caught thousands of hogs either.... So that's not getting to me. Do I think a dog running 40 mph across a field catching a hog is cool? Yeah probably a sight to see. I have got to see dogs running them in the wide open tons of times its a cool thing to watch. After reading tons of post on this board in the last few days there's a few things I can say for certain. People adapt there hunting style to what the terrain is. Obviously you hunt a lot of flat open terrain bc obviously they run them down in the open. Next in some places some people have to walk hunt bc either they can't afford to ride something or it is no way in hell you could drive anywhere and it would take longer than if gone by foot. So is there places to walk? Yes is there places you can use finder holders? Yes is there places you ride a damn sidexside and drink beer? Yes. The post of walk hunting does not mean to me there is no such thing or that must be bc you have number 2ty dogs.  Around here to me and bo there is really no where in the surrounding counties of his county or mine that you really can't hunt off a utv or atv  at all. Yeah there's times that you may have to get off and walk but for the most part dang near any of them the aid of a atv will get you there to your dogs quicker. So to us people around here that do walk hunt we know there dogs suck. Bc that tells us they want leave there feet and hunt. Now your terrain in Texas or whatever state can be a completely  different thing. So the start of my thread how many hogs do you catch that was to see if it's different over there as far as what my perception is of a walk hunter here. So when I started getting the low numbers instead of 100 or more. I was like well sounds like a lot of walk hunters here.  So I am all for a man to hunt the way he can. I have been coming off as a complete dick to most the last two days but I will say there is nothing like being in gods country in the great outdoors. So if a kid or a man just likes simply being in the woods bc they love it but don't have a dog that's good at all that's fine with me and I respect that. I'm not telling anyone that loves being in the woods to kill your dogs their not good. I would help a beginner anyway as I could. Was telling the newbie his dogs suck right? Probably not... But I would have never said that if he wouldn't of used the term finished dogs. I'm not trying to tell anyone what they should feed. I'm trying to tell some people that really think there dogs are what they supposed to be some of them probably ain't what you think if you have ever been with a sure enough hog dog. There is always somebody with a better dog and a better place to hunt. We all turned these threads in to who has the best dog or the most culls myself was one of the main ones. My post was directed to people who think they own a sure enough hog dog. I didn't ask people who knew there dog wasn't any good to post. At the end of the day we are all blessed to be able to live in a country that allows us to number 2 talk on our iPhones and laptops all day about how the guys dog in bama and Texas suck lol.
