I used to let the curs catch a bad boar and then I upgraded to a 22 bullet and then again to a 22 mag...don't need to feed a bulldog this way...
I used to always say a hog has a boundary that when you cross it it will charge...normally works but once my dog was starting to put the pressure on a big boar and sow. The dog caught the boar and the sow got nervous and made several changes toward me and she always turned and went back...My theory as usual was right on...on her last charge she stopped at the end of her charge and now she had a new boundary...then she came and sort of worked me over before she headed out...I am real mindful of that possibility now...
just don't care to catch a hog without a good dog or two on each ear...riding a big boar is not bad but it can get that way in a hurry when a dog grabs your leg instead of hog...
