When I was being "learnt"...lol....my mentors would release all sows and small boars that we caught (but didn't Barr)
This is how i was brought up and still practice it today. The old timers i watched from day one supplied most of this east Texas area from the early 70's till now. Thats the main reason we even have the sport we have today!
That being said after seeing Chance and Tonys weight they brought in and the pictures as well as hurt if not killed dogs i'm leaning more towards barr hogs being fine in any tournament i compete in which i never said i didn't think it was fair to anyone i just thought it in the back of my mind. If we had them in my area which soon enough we will cause ive started my own little hurd
i will sure look forward to catching them again but that being said I'm doing it for the sport not for the food.
