No Experince

uglydog i understand what your talking about freezing and all, but everyone has to start somewhere. if you got some youngins with you, you have to teach them. yeah you may start out doing all the work on the hogs but the more they go the better they will get. each one has to teach one. this hog hunting thing is really funny. i mean i know of more people that are willing to take someone bird hunting or coonhunting and its no big deal, but this hog hunting thing it's like we don't like bringing people in because they don't "know" what to do. most people don't like to bring pups or just started dogs and such. well if no one is willing to take the time to teach someone and help them to train up a pup then how do we expect to pass this on to the next generation?

i would like to think that my boys will take up hog hunting the older they get but that isn't a given. i like taking young kids that might not know a dang thing. its fun to see them freeze up that first time, cause they think this is a cake walk..lol. after that they don't freeze anymore or they decide this aint for them..lol. most people on here are real good about giving their knowledge out but most aren't real willing to take people out with them. a lot of that i know comes from people stealing land or going back and poaching it, etc. maybe i'm just a big hearted kind of guy but i very rarely tell people no when they want to go on my place. cause the landowner doesn't want me to bring in too many people i don't really put it out there but i like going with different people. i like to see how my dogs measure up with theirs and vice versa. i like putting my dogs in new areas to see how they respond. and above all i like taking young people so i can give them that bug and keep this hog hunting thing we all love going. i just think it takes laying down the rules to the hutn and letting them know waht you expect of them during the hunt after the hunt and such..
