Title: 05-02-09 Hunt "Nice Boar " Post by: Ladogos on May 03, 2009, 08:52:18 am I got an invite to go back on the property where Uno got killed. So i took them up on it. The property owner said that he had some pictures of hogs on his game cameras . My father went with me and we took his Jadg pup that he got from James. We Got up at 4 am and got the coffe made, dogs loaded, and arrived right as daylight was breaking. we were wanting to get an early start because of the heat. Well as my luck would have it we hunted for a few hours and jumpped one and ran it for a little while and then the hog hit the water and crossed a big slough and the dogs lost it. We made our rounds over the whole property and never got anything else.
So we left and on our way home i told my dad that i wanted to go by and check on one of my places. We put the dogs down and hunted for a while and coule tell they were starting to get tired . We was watching him on the Garmin GPS . Then I noticed Boots went out about 200 yards and startd circleing and zig zagging back and forth in one area. He kept going back and forth. Sadie finally went to the same area and made a round or two and then came on back. Boots continued for about 10 minutes and then he started going a little farther and was moving pretty fast. Before we knew it he was at 780 yards. So we loaded up all the dogs and headed that way. As we were going to him the GPS showed he was treed "Bayed" . We got as close to him as we could , 280 yards, and stopped to listed and he was telling the news . We turned the Dogos, Recado and De'Angelo, as well as the other curs to him. Just as they got to him it broke and i was pissed ! ! ! BUT they were hot on his tail and got him stopped and caught after about 300 more yards. I took off running to em and never heard a sound, other than the occasianal dur dog barking, so i knew it had to be a good one. When I got to em it was a REALLY nice Boar Hog about 250 lbs . Recado had one ear and De'Angelo had the other. I got the hog dispatched and checked the dogs over and no injuries. THANK GOODNESS . I didn't get any action pictures as i broke my camera because i had it in my pants pocket. I did get a few pictures afterwards with my cell phone . This was one mean UGLY, NASTY sucker. But he wasn't going anywhere with Recado and De'Angelo anchored on him. Ol Boots pulled it off again and pulled a rabbitt out of the hatby him self. Or should i say a Hog . LOL After the Catch (http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/mwgarrett/Hunting/DSCN0258.jpg) My Dad with the hog.

Title: Re: 05-02-09 Hunt "Nice Boar " Post by: jlg on May 03, 2009, 06:37:37 pm now thats thats worth posting damn good hog
Title: Re: 05-02-09 Hunt "Nice Boar " Post by: Ladogos on May 03, 2009, 09:17:32 pm Thanks for the comments. Yes he was for sure a nice hog and no doubt worth mounting. I am giving him to a buddy of mine that is a Taxidermist . He is going to do a FULL BODY mount on him. He is going to put him on display in a store . Here is a picture of him as we were caping him out. We split him down the back and hulled him out from the top. This makes it a LOT eaisier to sew up and a LOT less stiching .

Make sure you post a few pictures of that rascal after the taxidermist is finished with him! Ive never seen a full body mount on a boar before. Title: Re: 05-02-09 Hunt "Nice Boar " Post by: jhy on May 04, 2009, 10:36:00 am Marvin,
Great job and nice boar! When I slow up at work and have sometime to get back in the woods I need your help stopping a runner up the road from there. Joey Title: Re: 05-02-09 Hunt "Nice Boar " Post by: Cull Buck on May 04, 2009, 10:54:17 am Great boar! Definately a trophy worthy of a full mount.
Title: Re: 05-02-09 Hunt "Nice Boar " Post by: Ladogos on May 05, 2009, 08:01:06 am Joey, I dont know if i can help you stop that darn runner , I been getting on some myself lately and get SMOKED . BUT we will surely get together and do some hunting . ;D You have my numbers so give me a buzz .
Title: Re: 05-02-09 Hunt "Nice Boar " Post by: Dirtydog on May 05, 2009, 12:58:59 pm Nice hog Marvin. Wheres the pics of the real hero here "Boots" ? he is the one that should be gettin some credit ;D
Title: Re: 05-02-09 Hunt "Nice Boar " Post by: Ladogos on May 05, 2009, 03:51:02 pm Dirty Dog you are exactly right man. He rolled out right after the hog was stuck and didnt return untill we were back at the truck and already had the hog loaded up. I told my dad the same thing. You know most people , including myself , sometimes give the catch dog all the credit when if it werent for the strike dogs the catch dogs wouldn't be able to catch . LOL he said yeo your right. But your right he is the one that needs the credit . . . ;D
Title: Re: 05-02-09 Hunt "Nice Boar " Post by: jhy on May 05, 2009, 04:22:35 pm Marvin,
My dogs will stay with them, but soon as we get within 200 yards or so they will break and run. I need some of the Tomahawk Catch dogs for long range work. Joey Title: Re: 05-02-09 Hunt "Nice Boar " Post by: ppc dogos on May 06, 2009, 04:28:12 am I have a few fotos of him from our trip to Marvin.
That Boots is FAST, is build to run! the first thing I noticed about him is that he has some pointer look in his build.

If they decide to run you really dont have a very good chance of catching them. That hog decided to stop and fight for some reason or another. Just glad there was two catchdogs and some rough curs to help them out or otherwise the dogs would have been in a bind for sure.
