Set it up and I will be their!! Good idea! Driven the hogs and cows would still have to be done a horse back?
Yeah it would be horse back but I'd leave the option open for people that wanted to it on foot.

Big o my hog dogs are broke off cows but I can sic em' on cattle and it does'nt take much sic em' if there is another dog allready baying cattle. Dog that go both ways are few and far between but thats one reason why I would want to do something like this to preserve the tradition.
Dexter, Its my opinion that a good true Cur dog should not catch a shoat out of a group of hogs and let the rest drift away in the process. Thier goal should be to bunch the whole group or as many as possible. As a matter of fact I'd prefer that my dogs dont even mess with shoats.... I could care less If I never catch a shoat again in my life, ofcourse thats not always what happens, but it is my ideal. So shoat catching is a big DQ in my opinion. I know sometimes after hogs scatter a stragling shoat by its self is too hard for almost any dog to pass up but it still irritates me I just have to put up with it untull I find something better.
