JMO id go with a black mouth, never personal hunted with a kemmer cur. but a black mouth is just a all around good cur for the fact they where breed as a working dog. i know in my area alot off the old timers used black mouths to work cows in the morning and hunt hogs in the afternoon. so go with a black mouth

If i had to pick one cur dog to have in my yard it would be a Parker Cur, I like them they are breed to do one thing and that is hunt.

would have to agee with ellis, parker curs are the way to go...every dog in my yard has parker blood in them they just have alot of drive and bottom in them and when you turn them out the box they have one thing on there mind and that is to find a hog no matter how far they have to go

     I am going to have to say the catahoula. they are loyal hard working and dont know the word  cant  and  smart as a whip
 that has the brains to do any job or jobs you want them to do. they are a little gritty for some folks due to the fact that  they are
real catchy and very seldom  will the catch dogs  get cut off the leads
 Thats what we raise and thats all ill raise other than our dogos and dogo crosses for a little more help  when needed

Look for a dog that hunts the way you want and produces you hogs on a consistant basis .  Don't get caught up on one specific breed , just look for a hogdog..

BMC are bred for rank cattle and hogs. Kemmers are bred for squirrell etc. I love a good BMC and thats my preference, with that said hogstalker has a kemmer that I would feed any day of the week.

As long as it is yellow and has a black mouth I don't care what kind of cur it is.  Grin

I have lacy's and cats, but if I had to pick out of mine on a basis of consistensy, grit, drive, ect......cat!!! But I have hunted behind some great BMC's as well, so I wouldn't make my basis on breed, just ability!

The best curs for hog hunting are the ones that find hogs consistently, on different properties. I don't care what color they are.............. Shocked

But for me, they have to be able to do it alone...with no help. Thats the hardest thing for me to find when I go looking for an outside dog to breed to.

agree with Ellis on that

25 in three hunt this month behind two parker dogs. The biggest problem is getting them to quit.

if you can find it and put your finger on it what the best cur hogdog is then plz tell me your secret...in the mean time hunt with several different breeds and get your own opinion...but remember to each his own and to stay open minded...theres gna be the good the bad and the ugly in every breed out there...if it can bring home the bacon by itself on a consistent basis then that is what i consider a HOGDOG...jmo of course
