My “new” dog is a cur. She found a big arse doe my buddy shot tonight. She never barked. I could tell she was on it and plowed through the briars. She’s very obedient. She doesn’t know what a leash is. Our shite is way too thick to try to leash a dog. I do wish she’d bark when she found one. My old lab/hound never barked either. I’d call her back to me then follow. Finding a deer is exciting as shooting one to me. I will always have a dog in some sort of training to find a dead deer.

Not many dogs will bay a dead deer. Plenty of them will bay a cripple and that's what's really important IMO. If the deers dead and they know you're looking for dead deer they'll bring you to it.

When I started out with no collar, I had to run through the woods trying to keep up with the dog. As he got better, I could hang back and he'd come get me after he found it. When I got the collar, I just kinda screwed off till he stopped, and walked to wherever that was.

It's so nice when you get to that point. When you have 100% confidence in the dog and the gear to make it easy.
