Heyyyyy....... Sexy lady.
We finally got a hold of this fat sow. But not after she put the whooping to my dogs. RIP Bostco. This was one bad Sheera.
Made a hunt Sunday morning with Aaron W. Aaron had two dogs on the ground and I had a little yellow gyp of mine with them. Aaron's dogs struck a group inside a yapon and briar thicket. Aaron's dogs are straight run and catch. I've never heard his dogs bark before. When we heard the bay start, we knew it was something real. But just as the hogs in Brazoria County along Halls Bayou are known for, the bay broke and these hogs left the zip code. Caddy and my Falina gyp caught out on a shoat.
While the bay was going, we drove the wheeler to a ROW lateral. Just in time to see Gator hot on the hog's ass. I dropped my Sport, Crow, Bostco, JJ, and Tex dog to help. From where we were at, I lost communication with my dogs after 1,000 yards. We started our way down the bayou and picked the dogs back up, 500 yards on the other side of the bayou. The water crossing was way on down the road so we just held tight. The hog would bay, then break, bay, then break. My JJ and Tex dog were on some other hog so the only dogs on the bay were Gator, Sport, Crow, and Bostco. As we waited, the hog kept breaking and baying again closer to the bayou (back towards us). As soon as they bayed close by, we sent in some catch dogs. I sent Tank (AB), Diva (Dogo), and my Falena gyp. Aaron sent Caddy. Of course right before the catch could get there, it broke. The hog runs 300 yards again further down the bayou, but she had too may curs on her and she went to the bayou. My Tank dog didn't keep up but my Dogo did and her and Caddy were able to help Gator shut this bad girl down. We were all really surprised that it was a sow. She treated them dogs rougher than any BARR I've ever seen in my life!!! (Joke for all my Barr friends). RIP Bostco. We found him laying where the catch dogs must have tried her. He was too rough, young and slow to know better.
This Sow may not have weighed 300 but she was one of the fattest I've ever dressed. And she was the meanest sow I've ever caught. She cut the heck out of a couple dogs, killed Bostco and took these dogs over 2 miles over 2 hours. She didn't have the biggest cutters, but they were sharp as hell and she knew how to use them.
