We run cut collars on most everything.. I believe it's saved a whole bunch of dogs for us. We always hear of people losing dogs to hogs with just a small poke in the neck. I feel like it is definitely the most exposed area when our dogs are baying. A whole lot of the old timers don't run them, but in our case with the way we hunt I think it helps. We generally hunt a few more dogs than everyone else and want our cur dogs to catch the smaller hogs. To each his own we'll keep running one on the majority of ours
We also double up with a Garmin and telemetry collar

Most cut collars have built in section for tracking collars to over lay. Works for us, they'll hunt regardless of what you put on their necks. We've lost too many dogs with malfunctioning collars to not run a wildlife as back up on the good ones |

this was not a cut collar or not rant but i will play.... I just lost my gsp Rusty a couple weeks ago and he was wearing a cut collar and got hit in the chest and ribs. Rusty was a real loose baying dog but i always put a cut collar on him. I feel a cut collar will rarely save a dog, if the hog is doing work he aint gonna stop at the collar. I say put a cut collar on if it makes you feel better. But what ever you put on make sure it has a name tag and phone number

Guys, I guess I should have reworded my posting. Cut collar or no cut collar at least put a dang trackin collar on them. The particular case that had got me riled up involved what someone else considers their best dog that got lost while they were hunting. Had been missing for several days before I saw him. When owners contacted me they were ecstatic to know that he had been seen. In addition to that, he is so skittish no one can get their hands on him But I'll leave that one alone.
