The most impressive thing I have seen was with two of my cur dogs back in 1995. Jimmy Jones & I were hunting & we caught 3 big sows & three shoats about 30# a piece. My two curs Hank & Cougar kept rolling out as soon as we had our hands on them. They had rolled out about 10:00am after the last sow was caught. These sows were about 175#-200#. We carried the shoats back to the boat & I took a reading on the dogs & they were deep, barely getting a reading on them. Jimmy left to go get a 3 wheeler to get the sows out & I stayed there. He finally came back about 3 hours later & he had his brother & three wheel barrels . I told him, lets just go cut those hogs loose & he said no, he wanted them so we went in & got them. Stupidest thing I have done. Anyway got the last hog in about dark. Took a reading on the dogs & they were in the same place. We were planning on hunting here the next day so I left them knowing they would be where I turned them out at the next morning. Came the next morning & they were not there so I took a reading on them. Same place. We started hunting our way to them & caught a couple of sows & pigs about half way into them. I told Todd, shut the dogs up that I think I hear dogs baying. Sure enough it was Hank & Couger still baying. We got to them about 11:00 am & caught another big sow. They had her ears chewed off & they had scabbed over & with nothing to hang on to they were just baying. Now you would have thought they would have been worn out because I know they were on this sow for 25 hours but they lit out & we heard them baying. Got to them & they had a huge sounder bayed up. Todd & I were turning hogs loose as fast as we were catching them. Jimmy and his brothers were tieing them & Todd & I were turning as many loose as we could. Jimmy was yelling at me to tie them & I told him we had way more then we could haul out. We had about 8 or 9 people with us & probably had ten hogs tied up with the others we had caught on the way in. I dont know how many we caught total but had to of been about 20. Anyway, it was not the amount of hogs we caught that day but the fact that those two dogs stayed bayed on that hog so long.
