All I want to see is 1 strike Dog...1 CD...and if we're lucky enough...a big hog. I've only hunted this way a few times so I'd like to see it done by someone with experience.
If your not sure about an area with big hogs...I've got one...only about an hour...maybe hour and a half from you.
You up for it or not?
Deff don't word it like i'm scared... This is the way we hunt in almost every dang tournment. Yea, id rather come somewhere new. lets just try and work out a time. I'm deff out for this weekend. It's race weekend for me... Good luck though Kevin.. I don't have to prove a point but if you want to listen, try it several times and watch the success. I mean a sure enough strike dog, and a very dependable CD and you can catch pigs all day long without near as many dogs getting hurt. That one sure enough bulldog can work the hog allot better in his/her advantage without another dog in his way! Don't always listen to the know it alls that you hunt with!! (not saying you do but there are plenty out there) Not all advise is good advise!! I'm deff not telling you how to hunt but I'm giving my advise to this scenario..
Oh no...didn't mean it to sound like I was calling you scared Brian. The number of dogs was never a question with me...I've never taken more than two (bay) dogs when I've hunted by myself. Heck...my trashy young pup will strike and bay a pig by himself. It's handling the big boys once you get to the bay...that's where I'd like to SEE someone with experience do it. Sounded like you had the experience...so....
Works got me tied up 6 days a week now so...Sundays are my only real option...maybe a Saturday nite. Anyway...would like to get with you. Just let me know when your free.

The handling part is the easiest to me! Maybe a couple weeks from now? Where are you hunting?
I'll tell you a funny one, ask your buddy Blake what i told him when he leaned down to help me while i was doing work!
