Free tippin'

The first hog I bayed with my dogs was a 150 lb sow. I didn't have a bulldog yet. She bayed in a patch of trees and brush in the edge of a field and I eased in and slipped up behind her, was going to just grab her but she kept trying to spin around on me so I flipped a rope on her and when it came tight she broke for the woods. I went around a sapling with the rope, and when she hit the end the pups caught her. The next one I thought I'd do the same thing. She was about 100 lb. I had her bayed for probably an hour, in a pond, in thick brush, in open woods, it didn't matter. I couldn't get closer than about 10 yd and she would break. I tried to talk the dogs into catching her but she had them bluffed pretty well by then, she was rank for her size. Shortly after that I got a bulldog!
