it's like asking the same questions about hounds. the answer to all are the same, it varies. it varies between breeds. it varies between lines within the breeds. And it varies between individual dogs within the breeds.
the best way to go about it, is to say what you're looking for in a dog. then ask who hunts & breeds curs (or hounds) that perform that way. then go have a look for yourself at the parents and decide if they are what you want.

stay away from most catahoulas & blackmouths. most will run silent or semisilent. best bet is going to be leopard cur (but may be cold nosed), most "popular" lines of mt curs (stephens, kemmer, canadian etc), and most treeing curs.

Stephen's Curs are open on track, good rig dogs, and nose varies as much as hounds.
