I have hunted and owned every tree hound breed there is, and I prefer the plotts hound over them all.
I like the way they are built, and prey drive, and over all natural ability. But that dont mean they are all that way.
There are good and bad in all of them. Personally I dont like walkers, but have heard there are some good ones out there, j/k... I have seen some good ones too.
I dont like any hound that looks or built like a bloodhound, too long of ears, loose skin. I like a real tight made hound, with a medium to short ear.
There really is no one best breed, they all can get it done, you just have to find the ones that suit you the best. But I'll stick with the plotts.

Plotts! The ones Ive had experience with havent been as mouthy as the other hound breeds.

I coon hunted for years back when I was younger, then I took up hog and bear hunting,....I guess that I've hunted with just about all kinds of hounds. I've seen some really good coon dogs from most of the hound breeds, but when it comes to hunting big game, I do believe that the Plott breed produces more really good dogs than any other hound breed. However,one of my buddies had a bluetick gyp that would have made one of the very best hog dogs I've ever hunted behind if she hadn't gotten killed by a bad hog. Of course, there are folks on here with super hog dogs from other hounds, and there always will be, but for whatever reason it seems to me that Plotts, in general, take to hog hunting sooner and turn out more exceptional dogs than other breed of hounds.

I like blueticks, but for hogs I think a plott is the best and have owned several that were silent

Hey Centex The type of dogs I run are the type that find hogs and catch them..........Not just go out six hundred yards. Question of the day for you. Do you hunt with a garmin?
