We've been track hunting a monster hog for about the last 3 or 4 years in Huntsville.. He roams between about 10,000 acres of deer leases and another 5,000 of National Forest.. It's some of the thickest country we hunt and full of running hogs, but there are some reallly big hogs in the area. 15 orso years ago sone guys caught a 600+lb boar hog with dogs and just this last year a 406 barr was caught in the lease. Van Dorn thinks he bayed the hog about 4 years ago, but couldn't get the bull dog there in time. He thinks he's a huge boar hog... I think he's or of those old smart barr's. He's the biggest track I've ever seen while hunting, the only thing I can compare it to is abt 600# steer track, the few times I've seen the track Fresh it made the little hair on the back of my neck stand up just thinking about catching him.. Twice we've put some jam up dogs down on this guy just after a rain, both time he took us straight to the sows and pigs. We're really not sure what happens after that, he may squat or he may just leave the country, there's so many places for him to go around there that are sanctuaries for the hogs.. We've found his track twice more since then but both times he was running so close to sows ad shoats that we decided not to put down on him! Sooner or later we'll get him alone somewhere and drop the heat on him Wink
