I had a great hunt with my wife this weekend, she hunts with me quite a bit, but it always seams that she gets stuck on the tough hunts and misses the good easy ones. Well this one was a good one for her and she had a great time.
We were driving up to one of our places at Matador, just at dark, light breeze........and there was a good boar troting out of the brush and into the wheat. I stoped and kicked out Cat(catahoulaxPlott) and Smoke(CatahoulaxBMC) two finished baydogs. The boar had a little head start but those two girls had a bay in a few minutes. I started to them with Adora and that boar was not going to sit still and was running and fighting, so I sent Adora to them for some help and in about a minute I heard her hit and he was done.
Struck the second boar down a dry creek in the brush. Cat had him held down pretty good but he broke before Smoke could get there to help. I sent Adora after I could hear both bay dogs. I could hear the baydogs getting the bad end of the deal, running and fighting. Adora closed the distance and caught in a steep sided draw. This boar was really trying to give her the business but she was handeling him like an old pro. Used my boar spear for the first time on this one, and all I can say Is WOW spear is a real good deal, very pleased with the result.
Cat had several cuts and looks like the Boar bit her frount leg, but she will be fine with a little R & R.
Emily said that was the best hunt she had been on in a year and the first time for her to see Adora on a big hog, she was quite pleases with the big white dog.
Thanks,
