Title: Big ol Sow Post by: got2catchem on August 11, 2008, 12:19:09 pm Yesterday was a pretty good day. Started off bright and early with bryant and some of his buddies. I definantly had a good time seeing their dogs get it done. We got a small boar. Then yesterday evening, I went to a place where a local rancher has been seein hogs for the last couple of days. I started my dogs off along a creek and walked in a little ways to look for sign. My buddy called me and said there were hogs in the open pasture about 500 or 600 yards away. I walked along the edge of the woods getting closer until my ol gyp hit the track about probally 300 yards away. I got to watch her and my other gyp close in on the hogs in the wide open. They bayed up, and suprisingly the hogs stayed for a minute or so(thought I was goin to get lucky..lol) ,but then broke and ran to the woods. They got the hog stopped and bayed up about 100 yards in a dryed up creek bed. We cut my 2 bulldogs loose(one of which was the AB I got from HDCURS, who was already hit a couple of times when I hunted in morning) and they held till we got there. It took us about a hour to figure out how and get her out of the woods. Me and two other good size fellows couldnt even get her off the ground. I am going to take her and sale her tomorrow, so I will get a weight then. But until then, anyone want to take a guess?

Title: Re: Big ol Sow Post by: got2catchem on August 12, 2008, 01:37:02 pm She ended up dying in a holding pen sometime between last night and this morning. So I went ahead and strung her up on a hanging scale(tough work w/only a come-along) She went 376lbs. She will be 400 lbs in a month or so ;) Got a feeling I am going to be doin some good coyote hunting the next couple of nights.
