Anyone using plott hounds for hoghunting? Are they any good? Here in Sweden plott hounds are used most for hunting bear and other predators. Wich breeds are known and used in the USA for hog hunting...
I met Mr. Plott in his home town of Franklin, North Carolina back in 1967. Yes,he bred thePlots for bear. My wife is also from the Smokey Mountains of North Carolina. She had an uncle (Billy Finger, from Maggie Valley) which was a well known Bear hunter in his area of NW NC and NE TN....
I ran and bredHog Dogs for over 45yrs all over the state of Florida. My crosses were, Catahoula, Rhodesian Ridgeback and American Pit Bull. My hunting partner is 77 years old and still runs Hog Dogs. He has 26 dogs on his place. He just sold two starterPup's to a hunter inthe Dominican Republic for $800 each.
