my personal favorite is blackmouth curs..though i am just now gettin back into them because its been hard to find any good blackmouths in my area.. i have a 10 month old gyp i just started an she is doin excellent..the past few years i have been huntin catahoulas and have 1 bluetick that is a real good hog dog..when i lived down in texas in the nineties bout all i hunted was blackmouths..im not sayin that the blackmouths are any better than any other breed just that they are my personal favorite

it depends on where im huntin sometimes i might take 1 and then sometimes when a few of us go to the tallahatchie river bottom we might take as many as 12 to 14..most of the time though i take from 1 to 3 bay dogs and 1 or 2 catch dogs

We run catahoulas, plotts and crosses. Young dogs and all we may have 8-10 bay dogs out (only 2 finished dogs) and 2 bulldogs on lead. My old dog, Rambler, is 9. He got cut really bad last year - he's not the agile dog he once was. Sometimes he remembers, sometimes he don't.
