I'm just being funny guys! And thanks FireMedic! I'd like to think I can handle whatever comes at me, but I know, from experiance, that is not the case... (My shattered wrist that I couldn't have helped for instance) Had there been a bay going on when that happened I would have dropped right in the middle of the chit and with no way to defend myself... or God forbid I was by myself when that happened. They killed a good boar hog that day, and with out me cause of the arm thing, and had I been by myself I would have had to wrap my arm up and walk to find my dog bayed up on that boar hog over a mile away... so in that instance, I would have NEEDED one. I mainly said that about jumping on a hog and riding it cause (in my mind and heart) I would want to be able to give my all as the dogs do to protect them as they do for me. One thing that I have learned from the hunting that I've done so far is that its really a "from the hip" type call every time. You never know where the dogs will be bayed up, what kind of hog it is, or how you're going to get your hands or your CD on it... So you play it by ear. I may one day wish I had a gun, but until then they shall or should fear the blade or the hobbles! LOL!
But I wll say this, the more I hunt the more ballzy or confident I get... I honestly can't see myself just sitting back and "watching" as my dogs get tore down... I would try to do something! I'm at least gona try and widdle a spear or make a lasso or something! LOL! Go all indian on their A$$!!!! LOL!
Little karata chop to the throat should do the trick!
