Title: Got one Saturday & two yesterday Post by: ScoobSmart on February 11, 2013, 10:25:00 am Rode around the lease Saturday mornin for about an hour lookin for some fresh sign. Finally came across a pine that was about 8" in diameter that was cut up all the way around it. Drove a lil farther & found another tree that had been rubbed on & the mud was still wet so we let the dogs out. Bout 2 minutes later we heard em bayin. Me & one of my cousins got the catch dogs & another cousin grabbed the gun. They were a lil over 300 yds from us & it was so thick you just about had to crawl most of the way. My cousin with the gun was the first one there & he hollered & told us not to turn the catch dogs loose. They had the hog backed up in the roots of a blown over tree so it wasn't goin anywhere. He said he climbed up on top of the roots to see what it was & the hog tried to come up over the top with him & that's when he shot it. There was no way to get the side by sides in there to him so we had to drag him all the way out.

Yesterday we got a sow that was prolly 150# right before the rain & another sow that was around 100# while it was rainin. Didn't get any pics of those tho.
