This hog has been around the block before. He started out being caught by one of my friends and they put him into a baypen, we worked dogs on him CONSTANTLY for two years. He would sure enough make a dog respect him. Then someone let all this guys hogs out of his pen, including this one. Maybe a year later I was hunting maybe 1/4 mile from where the baypen was and we had him bayed up in palmetto head maybe 10 foot across, but all around it was vines, tall grass, just a nasty place. Was shining a light at him while he was bayed and I could just see these shanks hanging out of his mouth. Waiting for my buddy to get there with the CD I walked around to the side and then back to the front and he just dissapeared, didn't make a sound!!! It probably took the dogs two minutes to realize he was gone, I mean he was out of there ninja style. Finally the dogs got caught up and bayed him again, my buddy got there with the CD finally, and needless to say we followed a blood trail to where the CD was laying after he broke again!!
There were a few wrecks in this spot that happened before this, and I seriously think most of it was from him.
Anyways, he ended up walking into someones hog trap. He sure knew what dogs were but not a hog trap apparently!!
Oh yeah, while we had him in the baypen we would knock about 2 inches off every 3-4 months
