Loaded Rousty, Yancy, & Lynda up for a run Saturday morning. 20+ mph winds had my expectations in check. Hunted for a couple hours with no luck. Dogs were hunting at a nice lope making 200 to 300 yard loops. Not many tracks or much sign at all. I figured the hogs would be down in the draws out of the wind so we kept pushing. Dogs got piggy on a fence crossing. Me & Lynda sat & waited while they trailed into the draw. About 10 minutes & 600 yards later, they bayed solid. Lynda & I eased in to the bay and they had a good 200 - 220 range boar bayed in a wash/cave at the bottom of a 40’ cliff. Got some good video & watched the boar charge the bay dogs from the cave for a couple minutes. Sent Lynda & git him caught & stuck. This is one of the coolest, pretty spots I’ve bayed a hog so I took the time to sit & appreciate it and take some pics. After enjoying the first bay, I sent the bay dogs again and they got bayed solid again about 300 yards west across another deep draw. I didn’t expect another mature boar. Figured it would be a hot sow. Walked Lynda in to about 20 yards, grabbed some video & sent her. The boar smacked her and both bay dogs off and broke about 40 yards and backed into a wash and made his last stand. Roughly same size hog but a little ranker than the first. We got touched up enough for me to call it a hunt. Pics don’t do these hogs justice. I’m a terrible photographer. I need to figure out how to upload video. Hope you guys enjoy!

That’s a nice job of finding and catching two smart old warriors. Hope y’all are healed up quick.

Those are two good boar. They can be pretty tough when you bay them in their bed. Good hunt.

That is pretty crazy place to bay. The hog sure has the advantage there, good job. Those are some good ones.
