My cassi dog in particular will bay about 20 ft away lol she and her sister are small 40-45 lb range and can get in there and grab a set when needed. They use to get shredded. I put a dang best on them and it made it worse. Now they done backed up and got smart. I've caught more hogs now then when they were cobs. Idk
Art never forget to pay FAR more attention to what you have seen with you own two eyes than what you read on these sites.

We use to never run vest. After so many bad cuttings and some killed. I invested in P&P custom vest I had made. From then till now no more killed dogs and very very little cutting. So the dang good vest made a world of difference around my place. I don't run light bay vest these where made heavier but not quit as heavy as a reg CD vest.

Heard good feed back on the p&p never tried one tho. I made the switch to hard core hogs best and really enjoy them. Only on my bulldogs tho. I'll be honest. I removed best on my strike dogs and slowly removed cut collar. Now, Only track collar and name plate collar. And like I said, they be back talking lol. If I'm running a young dog that hasn't learned yet I'll put something on him to help out. But so far so good. I enjoy reading everything. Seems like a lot of people are running ruff dogs now. I thinks it pretty cool both ways out. At the end of the night. I enjoy seeing all dogs working. I enjoy being there ride to the woods

I was really surprised myself. Tell you why we had some old junk vest we tried and they made no difference at all. Once I got the custom vest great made that made all the differences around here. I also think the right fit has a lot to do with it. I have seen some dogs vested and in no way they fit the dog made the dog look plum funny and really hinder the dog more than protect him.

With the 2 dogs I posted. That red gyp is a bay dog, tried and true. Usually run her naked, normal collar and tracking collar and she will bay loose but hang off a pigs azz if he wants to run. That brindle dog, I hardly ever run on the ground because he is straight catch and also the longest range dog I have, kick him out and you better hope there is pigs around cause if not you won't ever see him. So I use him really just as another lead in, some crop work here and there or if I am hunting with buddies who use real catchy dogs.. So I guess the red gyp is my hog stopper really, but if they won't bay up for her, that brindle dogs getting unclipped and they ain't gonna run too fast with him on their ear and that red dog will jump with him.

I use vests on 2 dogs and they have been saved by the running vest...there are 2 feed stores in my area and one sells theirs for quite a bit more than the other feed store...so that made my decision fairly easy...I buy the cheap ones for 55 to 65 bucks each...I take my dog that needs a vest to the feed store and try the vest on the dog out in the parking lot and buy the best fitting one...no complaints here...

I take back what I said last night. Now thinking about it. I use a old custom collar vest I got for $60 3 years ago on all my started Bulldogs that have come along and even let a couple buddies slap it on when they need it. It's taking the hits. For the money ain't bad.
