Title: 1-7-12 Hunt
Post by: Mike on January 07, 2012, 03:05:24 pm
Headed west this morning, out of the pines, to hunt some wheat fields along the Brazos River. I met Chris, Matt and Peaches out there at daylight. We got this old boar bayed and caught, then called it a day. He went 265 on the scale.

Felt good to hear a nice bay and see the catch!  Was a real nice morning to ride the horses and watch the dogs work, we covered a good bit of ground before finding anything but it was a good one when we did.  Enjoyed it fellas, look forward to the next one!

Now that I am at my office, I am able to upload the much anticipated video >:D

First, before I poke fun at someone else, I must fess up to my own dumbass move.   I woke up at 4:30 Saturday morning, saddled my pony, and hit the road. I was 30 minutes down the road before I realized I forgot to load Lizzie :o  Here I am going on a dog hunt, with no dogs...   Anyhow, between Mike, Matt, and Travis there were plenty of good/honest hog dogs on the hunt, and I am not sure how much help Mandi's wore out old cur dog would have been.

Back to the hunt.

There is ~ 20k acres in the river bottom, most of which is plowed fields, some irrigated, some dry land. There is a pivot 2 miles from any woods or water, that has a good stand of wheat, and several hundred heifers. If a hog wants to eat, they have to travel some open country to get there.  Seems like the perfect place for a spotlight and Mandi's greyhound, or some stags.

Here's a pic of the welcoming committee

Here's the video. The hog broke bay a couple times, but never ran more than about 20-30 yards before standing his ground again. When he finally stayed bayed, it was on the wrong side of the brush for me to video the bay, but I didn't want to ride around and break the bay again.   You'll see Mike looking in on the brush, and Travis trying to find his way through.  The hog was standing about 6 feet in front of Mike, facing him with the dogs caught.

The hog was kind enough to stop near the fence so we could be easily retrieved.

Nice Boar hog.. Like the vid too.. When Matt told me where yall were going I figured yall would have roped a few since there wasnt any corn.. Guess they weren't brave enough to bust across them big open pastures.
