Thanks for the offer, AZ. I will keep that in mind. That sounds like what I was talkin about. I do like to gather a few at a time with these dogs. Sometimes you can get into some cattle that will work great if you just let the dogs work them for an hour or two. Some of the wilder cattle do better sometimes workin em with cur dogs, than the more gentle cattle will. I do not know if anyone works curdogs much out your way. The brush and tuff country is where they are the most useful, I think. I sure do not want to cut anyone out. Just lookin for some expense money, and room to work some cur dogs. I don't care if I ever throw a rope, if the dogs work good, and there are hands there to rope, I stay out of the way! I would starve to death doin the roping! But I do love to gather with a good set of curdogs.
I will get back with you in the fall and see what might be goin on out your way then.
Thanks again[/q Draggin N, What line of curs are ypu runnin? we use some good foundation blackmouths and a couple leapord dogs.We contract with the county sheriff and catch loose cattle. If things get slow, we load up dogs and horses and go sit at the salebarn, almost always get a catchin job that way as some old feedbucket man will come in and say he had one wouldnt come in.
