 i guess it was 1999 when the or when i noticed the hogs move in the back side of the farm and i started killing them . my first hog dog was born on 10-31-99  so with dogs i would say may of 2000 .  but killin hogs is easy they just another critter  lol .

Caught my first hog with dogs about 10 years ago... Tried to get a pack together then but too many things kept me from sticking with it...

Have been back in it for close to 4 years, and still don't have a pack of dogs I'm proud of...  Cheesy

But I go 2-3 times a week, sometimes more... Summertime and deer season.. 

I don't think I could stand myself to only hunt a couple times a month, February - April...  laugh

I will roll over 24 yrs next month with these Yeller mutts.

I was raised in the foxhound and beagle circles from birth until I happened across a man with a Yeller dog tied at the backside of a string of foxhounds.

Was very inquisitive about the dog because I had never came across one. The old man that had him told me he was a hogdog. The old man saw the interested questions on my face and turned him loose. The cur dog ran to a nearby barn and began to bay four little black pineys with noses longer than their bodies, that were penned there. I just sat in amazement until my grandfather said we had to go. 

I had my dad take me the next week to buy a Ybmc that was advertised in the local trader paper. I had $50 and my dad loaned me $25 more to buy the lil gyp.  Took her home and put her in the pen with eight foxhounds and five beagles. And been hog hunting ever since.

Still owe my ole man for $25.  Haha.   Hoping he has forgotten by now.

20 years.  Went on my first hunt with my uncle when I was 10 or 11.  Been feeding my own pack ever since.
