Finally got a minute to put up some pics of our hunt from Saturday... Hit the woods early with all my dogs healthy and just had a real good day! Just about every drop had a hog or two at the end of it, Shine ended up with 5 and the meatheads ended up with 6! Was too busy gettin' to the next bay to get many pictures, but still managed a couple!! 2nd hog of the day, every time I start to thinkin' it might be nice to add a track dog to my arsenal... Shine up and talks me right back out of it   Pups jumped this lil' boar and Shine took it upon herself to finish it... several miles later through some ROUGH stuff she finally bayed him in a blowdown cave full of water.. had to crawl in on my knees to pull them out after they caught!!   One of two that Snapps and the Chub caught a few yds apart... man I hate killin' red hogs like this... woulda made a fine trophy in a couple yrs...  Me and Lee sat down to catch our breath while the help went to get our trucks... while we were sitting in the shade Snapps picked her head up, rolled into a strand and the Garmin showed her and Chub "treed" about 500yds away... so much for our breather...   Hate tryin' to hunt this piece of the property, few hundred acres of bad ass thick palm/palmetto... good bedding area but terrible to get to a bay in  Sucked down sow, good puppy trainer Tiger up top, ready to pounce... Loving what I'm seeing out of Shiner's pups... NO look back whatsoever... and work like they're on sooped up jet fuel!! Just like their momma!!!!  Lane with another red boar, lot's of red hogs that day  No trophy hogs that day, unusual for the place... But was a good day for the dogs, definitely "hardened" them up so when they bump a goodin' next wknd they'll be ready for him!!! First time in a long while I've had more dog power than I could use in a day... we wore out way before the dogs did!!! |

Good haul Noah. A hunt like that will surely harden up the dogs.

Thanks yall, amazing what a dog can do when you get them in semi-decent shape... If I get home before dark one day this wk I'll try and get some shots of the Shine/pups... more than likely be this wknd though....  Don't mean to brag... but man these pups are really surpassing my expectations at this point... I'm pretty damn critical but as far as drive/athleticsm/conformation goes... these pups somehow are the spittin' image of ol' Shine... with her same "chew through the aluminum dog box to get to the hog" personality... Hope they stay that way!!!!!!!!!! |
