I hunt all different types of terrain in FL, mostly thick river bottom, swamp land type stuff... the thing that makes the biggest difference to me is that all these hogs are under intense dog pressure from all directions... being as smart as they are, being caught a few times and released... a hog knows to head for the hills at the first bark.
I've seen hogs slip as far as a half mile away just from a dog barking at a cow in the pasture... they know what's about to happen
I'm of the "stealth attack" approach. Hit 'em hard and fast before the know whats happening!
I can take my quiet dogs and hunt a thousand acres all day long, take an open dog and the hogs would be run off the property in an hour.
