If people are running so called rough dogs & their hogs are breaking. They need some new ones
It's hard for em to run with a dog locked on each ear

I like a combination of the two.. With more leading to the rougher side. We like for the cur dogs to catch what they can handle. Even larger size boar hogs.. That being said no-one wants long ranged strike dogs catching boar hogs 2 miles away. The better ones know when to apply pressure and not, that's the brains behind a truly good hog dog.. it's fun sneaking in and watching a bay before the dogs know your there, then watching their whole demeanor change once they see you tightening up waiting on the catch down or looking for their ippurtunity to catch knowing that you showed up to finally help them.
We like the rougher dogs I guess for the simple reason you can catch more hogs ( numbers wise) when you hunt a rougher pack, saves time when your cur dogs can catch and roll off. The best days are big places when you can have a pack on the ground with a good mixture of loose, hard hunting dogs and a few rougher dogs that you know will put teeth on one
Hogs are gonna run and stop when they want, some will break more because of pressure applied by rough dogs.. Some will sit and bay with loose dogs.
I would have turned one 50# cd dog loose on that hog in a second and caught it. Caught too many like that to think otherwise
