need some of yall's input

Steven, I have a pit x cur that works very well for what you are talking about. He is a RCD. He is basically a catch dog that will hunt. He can be run alone or with another like dog and catch plenty of hogs. I can also use him as a true running catch dog from any distance but I will only do that with other very rough strike dogs on the ground as to limit the damage he takes. With loose dogs I use him as a lead in catch dog or sometimes I'll send him when we get pretty close. It can work well but you will have to keep some pups and see which ones work as you want them too. Some may come out straight catch that tire quickly, some may come out as just really rough curs that might catch or might bay which you don't want cuz that can wreck everything. You want with the go and leg of a cur that is straight catch.
