Title: Barring boars solo Post by: liefalwepon on December 16, 2015, 12:34:04 am I was wondering what's the best technique for castrating boars when hunting alone. Seems sketchy but I know there's guys out there doing it. I bet those rodeo calf ropers could do it easily. Is it easier to use hobbles or hand cuffs or rope? When you let them loose do they usually run or might they try and jack your dogs up if the were tied up near by? I don't know anyone who barrs hogs out here

I have seen them go after dogs, people and 4 wheelers. Sometimes they just run the other way.

Snap dogs up to trees barr him hold him down to unhobble grab back legs and turn him out then run get ready to put catch dogs back on him if he wants another taste.

The duct tape trick works good and I always keep a few old feed sack in my toolbox on the truck, slide the bag over his head, might have to make a few slits in the sides for the bigger hogs, un tie him and run for the hills lol, he'll fight the bag off of his head distracting him enough for you to get away...

Title: Re: Barring boars solo Post by: parker49 on December 17, 2015, 08:09:04 am cut the hog run the 4 wheeler on top take off legg ties and back off they usually get up and run off ... smaller hogs just cut and turn em loose they usually run off ..... one thing you can do is hold the back legg let it get up first they usually turn to fight just hold the legg want take long and you will see the hog turn and try to pull straight away turn loose they usually keep goin .... 4 wheeler works best .....

To slow him down when he turns on you and to slow him down the next time you catch him. Not all the way though, just enough to cripple that hind leg.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I was thinking about doing that I guess everybody hunts for a different reason but if there are people having to cripple hogs so they can recatch them, they need better dogs. To me, this is a sport & if the hog outruns me, he has my respect. Besides even tho I have seen Barrs that could run, usually they get so fat, they bay up better.
