Again this is just an opinion, I'd say 2 - 3 stopends is enough, after the dog has seen these stake it out don't even let it rag the carcass after digs, then as has previously been said if you get a bolter in the net or dig to one then let it go back to ground and let the dog follow. Too many stopends can put a dog off entering, it's much easier to face a quarry in the light than in the dark alone. JMO.
