As far as getting results, running dogs is the most effective method... period. Now i'm not talking about hunting a place once every week or two, I mean three or more times a week. We have proven this many times to various landowners where we used traps and dogs. There was no comparision... unless the hogs were just smarter than us on the trapping!
Constant dog pressure will run the hogs out of an area... but they will return when the pressure stops.
Are those prices good for dog caught hogs also?
