Good Job!  I havent seen a wetfelt like that in a good while, looks like the ones Jim Crainer use to have.  How is the dog doing in the heat with it?

Thanks for the comments guys, I'm posting on my sons userame because the turd used my email address for his account.  Yes, it is a Crainer vest.  I've not hunted in a while, my son is 16, just got his licsense and started hunting.  Last Fri he caught his first hog and this one is his second, he has a plott x curr that is starting for him and a lacy help dog, the bulldog and the two red and white dogs are his friends dogs in the photo.  His first on his own!  If anyone has a good female that will hunt I think they need another good dog!  They will be hard to deal with, I've told them to be careful buying dogs, easy to get screwed.  Really proud of him.

It's always great to hear of the younger guys taking up this great sport.  There are a lot of good people on this sight that are willing to help young hunters.  Where do you live?

Well, I am sure there will be a new post later, the boys got into the hogs this morning.  They wanted to go last night and there just wasn't anything happening so after about 30 minutes they came home and left about 5 a.m. first field good sow. Lesson....while walking in on the dogs caught about 10 feet away was a boar lying down, I took time to show the boys why it was important to pay attention while moving in so no one gets hurt.  We stood around and let the dogs work and watched the boar sneak out, I know one got away, but only at the expense of a good lesson.  Loaded up and took off to another field at the end they got into a sow w/pigs and a boar.  Caught the sow and tied her for training young dogs.  I'm sure they will post photos on a new thread later, they are on there way to ice down the meat from the one and eat a potatoe, egg, bacon and cheese taco at the local taco shop.  They could have caught another hog or two with one or two better dogs, if anyone knows where to find good short range dogs without problems let them know.  The fields they hunt do not require jam up go yonder kindof dogs, but quality short range dogs, better if they are a little rough in these grain fields to shut them down quick.  Thanks
