Title: cool weather pair 9_7_11 Post by: longshot on September 07, 2011, 03:28:54 pm started out solo at my friend Georges Ranch in Harper Tx. He coon hunted it the night before until 1am and I was there at 6:30am for hogs. Whitetail, Blackbuck and Elk were everywhere just like normal and didnt care that the dogs were around (and had been all night).
I was thrilled to have to use my coat and gloves it was a cool 51deg when I opened the box. Ginger and Dolly winded a group in some open country about 400yards off the road and we singled out a small sow around 40-50lbs. I turned Twinkle into the bay and after a min they caught out. Picked George up at 8am and we made a quick look behind his house. Ginger slipped off a few hundred yards on her own and set up bayed. Dolly and Twinkle joined in and we knew it was a good boar when all 3 dogs gave him plenty of space! I sent Pickle and Doodle from the mule at 150yards out and listned for the catch. As soon as I heard the war break out; I floored the mule and drove in. I could see one of the white dogs holding a ear and being pitched around like a cowboy stuck in his bull rigging! The other was stuck solid on the opposite ear with feet on the ground. I took 1 step off the mule and legged the hog! Here is a happy George: (http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y202/longshotjames/d27a93b2.jpg) Nice Hill Country boar: (http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y202/longshotjames/8199fe50.jpg) Longshot Title: Re: cool weather pair 9_7_11 Post by: Mike on September 07, 2011, 03:45:26 pm Good boar hog James!
