NLA I think that happens more than people realize. I’ve seen lots of hogs lost at the road.
Cajun that was good handling on your part and good dog work from your dogs. Sometimes it just doesn’t matter what the dogs do, unless they just straight up catch the hog, some hogs are going to run no matter what. The other day we bayed a good hog in high weeds. He tried to run and came straight to me. Of course all I could see were glimpses of him. They were just enough to know that he was a good hog. I stood still because I didn’t think he even knew I was there. He let me know when he came past me that he did by slapping me in the leg and ripping my boot and pants leg. He left a scratch about 6” long across my shin. Thank goodness for the boots lol. That’s about as close as you can get to getting cut without actually getting cut. As he came by though, he was in obvious 4 wheel drive because ole Zeke had him by the pride and joy and was sitting back as hard as he could. He got loose and we never bayed him again.
We had a boar about 140# that stopped and literally got under an old momma cow once. She had a calf that was probably a couple days old so she wasn’t happy. We walked around her I bet 10 times trying to flush the hog or get where we could catch the hog but it wasn’t working. Finally I had my buddy close in on one side and I closed in from the other and her and the calf dart out about 10-15’ and I sent the catch dog. I was beginning to wonder if that hog wasn’t going to get away in plain sight.
