Man he looks fast lol

Mike we have some like that, they straight just leave. I don't really know how to go about catching one like that. If you had the access you could keep just cold packing to him but that's tough. I did a big report on hogs in one of my biology classes and i found some reports where some boars had 50k acre home ranges. I think this is more the exception that the norm. Those rogue boars are tough to catch. I think alot of it comes down to luck alot of times lol

Good luck.

Try getting him drunk. Sour corn with ever clear and wine and put it out the night before your hunt lol

Is that the same one we took across the beltway that day and bayed just outside the subdivision?

Those B@!!$ look familiar  Cheesy

Myles, I think it is. That was the only time he bayed... and the only one that's ever took me across the beltway. Shocked

There's no pattern to this hog, he's been started in different places and runs different every time. The problem is, he doesn't stick around after being run a couple times... he may be gone for a while now. But, there's cameras all over the place... I'll be after him when he shows back up.

Charles, I would guess him at least 250# based on pics and almost getting ran over by him that day with Myles. Grin

That was a butt puckering moment....thinking we had a little hog bayed and that big som buck come out dang near run us over!!! and the fact that the dogs run across 4 lanes of a major high way to het there!!!

Neither of those two experiences were the freaky ones.  Till we had a lil down time and Mike went to catching snakes. 

Ask me to knife fight a grizzly in a thicket......Hells Yea.
Stand next to a crazy man holding a snake.......OUT Brotha!   Grin

One boar we had a tracking collar on to train young dogs . We turned him loose in a 12000 acre hunting club behind my house. You would be surprised on how far that boar would travel. We have found him as far away as 12 miles. Once we put dogs on him, he generally heads back to the hunting club. We have found him bedded up next to houses in a brush lot & one time I thought he was hit on the highway, he was bedded up in a overgrown ditch right next to the highway.
  Talk about a educated hog, he would run threw cows, run down a dusty rd, or his favorite, run threw a herd of hogs to get rid of the dogs. but running was his specialty.
  The only way I got my tracking collar back, a deer hunter shot him & called me.
  We have put collars on barrs & they stick pretty close to home.
  Educated hogs are slick tho & sounds like you have one there.

what you said about that boar hog laying up next to the hiway or next to subdivisions verifies what I have observed them do...I have noticed that some of these boars hang out where the average hog doggers don't hunt because it seems obvious to the hunters that hogs just don't hang out in those type of places...and the big boars know this so that is exactly why they do it...no hunters and no dogs...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...

Cody, that ain't Theodore, but a property near there.

I'm afraid he may have died or got killed... haven't seen any sign of him in a couple years.

Dammit man. I sure was hoping y'all would catch him. It's bad when you mark a hog like that and try to get him. Makes all the other catches on that property somewhat of a let down. We had our mark set on 3 big boars on one property. Got one of the three I hope the other two make it past deer season. the one we did get... judging by his health he wouldn't have made it through the summer. Good luck on stopping that one before he rolls out again.

No, we usually have two or three more on the ground when one starts him. I may try him with one if he shows back up.

Mike
 I had a big boar do that to me several times. I ran him 14.13 miles in the Garmin one morning.
I finally caught him in His bed about 3 weeks later. Good luck eventually you will catch him sleeping on the job.
