 We have always choked the cd off until recently. Our cd VooDoo is toooo hard to choke off and wont release his grip for no one, No how, not ever. So we decided to use a break stick. The first time that I tried to use it, I stuck it between his back teeth and attempted to twist it.....with no effect what so ever. So my question is, am I doing it right? Or is there another method? (without causing pain or injury to my cd).

You may also want a 3/4" wide collar.

there are many different ways ive tried all of them when i was in high school we used to have catchdog comps and i dont thnk there isnt a method we havent tried lol...imo the most effective method for me is push the dogs head toward the hog then twist on the stick while pushing his head and then pull back when you feel the jaws give a little works everytime for me swiftly....its all about trial and error and personal preference hope this helpd

 THanks for the advice everyone.
 
 We have tried the skinny collar trick and I swear this dog can breath through his ears.

 T-Bob, we have had to use the old trim the ear a bit trick. LOL

 I will keep trying different things until I find a method that works for me and VooDoo. Like Goose said, its a lot of trial and error. The pit that we used to have, Ammo (RIP) was fairly easy to choke off but his neck wasn't nearly as thick as VooDoo's neck. Maybe I just need to go to the gym.  Cheesy

 I wouldn't mind breeding him to the right female. One that is big and leggy, no dog agression, no human agression, loves to catch hogs, loves long walks on the beach and drinking pina colodas..... Cheesy

Very true. Its easy and painless for the cd. Just have to be careful not to accidentally cut the dog.

Please don't take this the wrong way, just a different point of view.  But break sticks? 

We teach them to let go from a pup, when they are told.  I start with a whippy stick on the nose as a pup and then normally use a hat across the face when they are grown.  I think it helps to teach them (or force them) to "sit" or do something when they first start out catching as a pup.  It uses the "thinking" part of the brain rather than the "instinctive" part.   

Of course very few people use pure pits here though.  We run what you would call running catch dogs.
