We hunt in pine plantations with black berrys grown up in them and they are thick as it gets. More than once I have entered a bay only to see a real good boar hog break and blow thru them berry vines and saplings so fast I hardly knew which way he went and it takes the dogs a few seconds themselves. This is a senerio I personally see no solution to. Now in open woods or fields the dogs can surely run one down and put teeth on him but in these thickets he is just gone in a blink of an eye and the dogs are to far behind to do much about it within seconds. On occasion they only go a few hundred yards and catch or Bay but I know for a fact my dogs didn't "stop" him and most likely he just just squatted and they found him again. There is a big difference in how some folks view their dogs work. I'm not saying some dogs can't physically run a hog down in this terrain and put teeth in his behind but I know mine can't so we just do the best we can. Often times if the hog has no intentions of stopping he will get away but occasionally we can out last him and wear him out and get him bayed but we've got to get a little lucky. That is about as true as I can tell it and I am very interested in this topic because I do see these running SOB'a as an extremergency inconvenience and would like to find a solution. Look forward to hearing what everyone uses to neutralize these hogs.
