Boat, atv, or truck. We rig or find a big track to put on.

An air boat would be cool!

My favorite way is horse/mule back. Its like hunting on foot without getting tired! Grin

I usually try to hunt what ever way is most practical for the area Im hunting but I find myself sitting on my 4 wheeler a lot more than I care to these days. They sure are handy with getting live hogs out though.

Canoes in flooded river bottoms, rivers and swamps are a blast and very productive when things are flooded. Some of my most memorable hog hunts where in a canoe on the Trinity river bottom. Give it a try if you ever get the chance.
Wheelers and horses in big cattle country.
Jeep/trucks in good roaded country.
Horse back and on foot in the Piney woods.
 
Im like most other hog hunters I guess. If I just landed a good spot to hunt hogs on the moon then I would be in the market for a moon buggy! Cheesy

You name it.  Whatevert the sirtuation demands...  I prefer to walk hunt just for the quiet factor....but I guess if I had big enuff properties I,d rather hunt ahorseback... I. Like to hear what the dogs are doikg, part of the engjoyyment for me I guess.... Don't carew for the sound of motors or conversation when my dogs are out.

cward we have been hunting off horse back lately and love it! just dont loke that the bulldog has to walk the whole way! then get on a good hog and is tired. do you carry your dog on the horse with you?

I know this wasn't directed towards me but thought I would throw in my 2 cents anyways. My farrier's (which I go hunting with occassionaly) catchdog rides on the horse in order to keep him from wearing out but my cousins group has the catchdog (bulldog) walk beside the horses until they hear a bay and then they are gone. The weekend after Christmas I went with them and we caught 2 and traveled about 10 miles and the catchdogs were just as ready to go when we got back to the trailer as they were when we left it. Its just like anybody or any animal it takes some getting into shape in order to do it but they will eventually get there.

And if you couldn't tell already... we go horseback

I freecast mine from the truck. I point them the direction I won't them to hunt and send them. After they bay, I drive as close as I can in the mule.
