Until about a year ago I had a red cur that I bought when he was a little over a year, I bought him sick, full of worms, and abused but saw him bay a hog in a 5 acre pen , and even with his condition he still was amazing to watch. After about 2 months of taking care of him and getting him back to 100%, I took him hunting and he would go out 75-100 yards and come back to me and as I moved around the property he would do that over and over again. Needless to say he caught a small 70lb sow and a 240lb boar hog by himself that night . As I gained access to bigger properties I felt he was just to short ranged so I sold him , what a mistake that was. With my 10 years experience (not much) he is still the best hog dog ive hunted behind . He flat out would produce the pork , where the longer ranged dogs it just seems like we did a lot of chasing. You never realize how good to got something till you loose . Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14057409603632120274noreply@blogger.com
