dang boys handle don't meen to coddle them lol my dogs have a good handle on em and in 50 years i've never seen being able to control your dogs have any negative affects on the hunt issue . thats why us old farts use to blow them dang horns . it allowed us to call in our dogs from a great distance . now we can just tone em in with the e-collars no differant . haveing a handle on your dogs does not meen they will be up your butt all day just meens the dogs obey the master . calling a dog off a running hog is no differant than telling a cow dog to git out . and when ol gabriel blows his horn them dogs better head for the truck cause i have broken a couple of them [ horns ] on an old nuckleheaded dog or two lol I somewhat agree with too much handling being bad. Our dogs are hunted 4-5 nights a week. We don't use too much handle at all. We just make sure we have control over our dogs. Different strokes for different folks.
and brandeek handle is an old dog term for control it applies to dogs and woman and i don't see enough of it used these days lol

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog... A hunting dog is born not made...

Me too! When I first got into hog hunting I used to ask how long our hunt would be? The patented reply, "As long as the dogs want to!" I think that statement alone has been one of the reasons I've gotten to hunt behind so many good dogs. I don't go hunting unless we can let the dogs finish whatever they start. Boogie won't even look at you in the woods if you call his name while he's working on something. He just starts running faster. Sure it's not for everyone to hunt this way but we love it. I'd much rather be going into the 10th hog of the day and everyone huddle up before we go into the bay ". F' the hog! Someone catch that damn Red dog so we can go home"
