Howdy all, names Mike, live in Douglas Arizona. New to scent-hounds and curs. I was planning on getting a pack going and think a "Striker" bred cur would be a good start. I'm not a kid anymore so I'm guessing a cur would make for a shorter race than a hound. I'd like to hunt lion, cat, coon, maybe bear. Anyone have pups? Big John?

NO PUPS BUT WOULD GO WITH A GOOD HOUND ANY DAY

jbrown; Thanks for the input, why do you think starting with a hound would be a better option? I'm probably going to hunt on foot, so I want to cover as little ground as neccesary. (never shoulda sold my mule!). thanks, Mike

i would go with hounds for the race thats the best part for me when coon hunting you cant hear a cur dog very well but a pack of hounds running a hot coon thats hard to beat.

Striker bred is a good choice Garrett Fry had two litters posted on here his # is 530-591-0355 or Cal Allen is in your state he has some well bred Curs. Just a word about the Striker or Cal Allen Curs They are not no Squirrel dogs they will hold their own with any line of hound both Darrel Fry & Cal Allen make a living with their dogs Garrett can get you in touch with both

Have you ever hunted with a Striker cur ? They don't trail like most curs they are open and the one I have I hunt with guys with hounds you can hear her just fine

Thanks Jeff, I'm gonna call Garrett tonight.
Hey JR., Thanks for the input, I like em' both, but I'm excited about these Stryker bred curs.

I HAVE NEVER HUNTED WITH A STRYKER BREED CUR I HAVE HUNTED WITH TH MOUNTIAN CURS AND BLACK MOUTH CURS AND I DID NOTLIKE THEM. I WISH SOME ONE HAD A STRYKER CUR AROUND ME I WOULD LIKE TO SEE WHAT THEY WOULD DO. THANKS FOR THE IMPUT I BET THEY ARE GOOD DOGS.
