Terrain wouldn't be so much of a big deal if folks gave some thought and planning to the way they hunt in various places.



Let me use this as an example. A man has a puppy and takes it to the woods a few times, chunks it out with a bunch of other pups and crummy dogs, the pup won't quit playing, wont go hunt and when it starts to leave it CSS running back soon.

Other man gets the pup, takes it to woods, finds fresh hog sign, puts the pup out in it and while the pup is full of energy, lets it go explore what those fun smells are.

The second guy will more than likely have seen that pup make a dog whereas the first fella was probably creating a help dog.

Take the same "type" of thought process and apply it to talented dogs and you have a successful hunter in diverse terrains.

Some people wouldn't be able to kill more than a hog or two in a year if they had to do it without a dog (like gun or bow hunting) these folks are the type to not give any thought to how and why they hunt the way they do.

Other folks are hunters. And they hunt with dogs too.





Make any sence? Y'all know what I mean?

I agree with this. It amazes me how many out there, both young and old, have absolutely no 'hunting" skills. By this, I mean looking at a piece of country and being able to have a pretty good idea about where game is going to be laid up, traveling, or feeding. As for quitting, I'd rather feed my quitters than cowards

[Dedication07]

Underdog, I don't hunt quitters, I hunt dogs that suites me! To talk with such intellect and acting like you are so high and mighty it's amazing you had to use not YOURS but another mans dog as an example. So I changed the subject I was replying to your post and hada question! Which was what's a super dog in your eyes! I have read his history as well as your and others amazing have few for as many comments you have are actually posting catches with your crew!

[Dedication07]

And lion and boar awesome awesome  awesome hogs man! I wish I caught as many that's size as I've seen on your history! Congrats

I think it is good you are happy with what you hunt....  As far as ME,,,I hunt for fun,and to enjoy my dogs and thier working abillity,not to brag or anything else. I have a job and a family that comes first, I hunt when I can. I never said my dogs were anything special, I catch a hog on occasion and I only have one spot of my own to hunt, the rest I have to rely on invites. Now I do keep some of the best bulldogs around in case you didn't know that part  

And....I used JP's dog as an example as like I said....at one point we were talking about dogs hunting different terrain so I thought it applied.

I think I've posted about this before but can't remember....may have wrote it then deleted it without posting....not this time.

Bunch of freakin elitist....good gawd the egos around here....it's astounding.

"True Hog Dogs"  

Theres no doubt in my mind a lot of yall have better dogs than me..NO DOUBT..but good lord....to tell a man he aint got a "true hog dog" for this reason or that when he catches hogs on a regular basis with his dogs.

How bout this..all you elitist.....your pack to Florida for a month hunt there...then Georgia, then Alabama, then Kentucky, then Mississipi and Louisiana, the Arkansas and Oklahoma, the Missouri and the all points of Texas. After that hop a boat to central and South America...then steam over to Australia, New Zealand and New Guinea...after that head to Europe and Asia. Hunt all those places and catch pigs.....THEN you have "TRUE HOG DOGS".

[LTcaughthog]

Hahaha jimmy lemme know when you get those T. rex big foots going !! I wouldn't need any other dogs ! That'd be my super catcher !! He'd find em catch em kill em and load it up for you lol

And HS I'm aware of what it is. Ever heard of a joke.  and ps it's not the breed it's the will of a dog and his owners handle. That breeding stuff don't interest me.

[TexasHogDogs]

Lmao !

I tell ya..........I may not have no dogs worth a chit to the other man and to tell you the truth I really don't give a rats behind what the next man thinks about my dogs as long as I know the truth .  Also I may not can breed a good dog to save my life but man I tell you one thing.   I sure love to get on here and get them ole back hairs all bristled up and get a little slober slinging going on  ,  sometimes its funny as hell ...... LOL  Gotta love it man !  Its all good !

[BA-IV]

I personally don't have an ego or honestly have the right to anything other then an opinion.  I feel strongly about what a hog dog should be and will tell you the term is slung around with to much ease.  I have dogs I hunt hogs with now, and that's about it.  Ill be the first to tell you that nothing on my yard is outstanding or great.  Once you can do that and acknowledge just what your after, and then go hunt with a hog dog or two, then nothing is good enough but the best.  

There's no ego here with me, just how I feel about breeding and how a dog should perform. I gues sit boils down to what you wanna feed and what your willing to put up with, but if you have don't have standards and claim you have hog dogs when many of us have seen good dogs go, then someone is bound to state their opinion on what a dog is or isn't.

KevinN... who's an elitist and has an ego? The ones who have high standards for what they expect in a dog?

[KevinN]

Having high standards and expectations for YOUR dogs is GREAT! I have expectations and standards and goals....all of which are MINE and for ME and my yard. I sure wont tell someone else they don't have hog dogs just because their dogs don't suite me.

As far as what a "REAL HOG DOG" is....well.... A 5-10-15 mile race DON'T MAKE a "REAL HOG DOG". You want to talk about a real hog dog then don't spout out this crap about "if a hog wants to run its gonna run"

That is B.S.!!!

2 or 3 "REAL HOG DOGS" won't LET a hog break...period. You say you've seen hogs dragging dogs hanging off their nutts and it don't slow them down? Well....I've seen it plenty and the hog stops every time. You say a bad briar thicket and the hog will blow and and leave the dog behind? Well I've seen that too and the hog don't make it 100 yards because the dogs bayed tight...even in the thick stuff. THESE dogs were true hog dogs....gritty as hell but didn't catch...sure, they got cut and some died but THEY were sure enough bay dogs.....and sure enough "REAL HOG DOGS".

There are MANY styles and preferences when it comes to hunting hogs with dogs and if the dogs produce...they are ALL TRUE HOG DOGS.

Where are they and when can I come watch them hunt?

[Mike]

Well Kevin I guess I've never seen a real hog dog out of the hundreds and hundreds of dogs I've hunted behind.

I can promise you one thing... if a hog wants to run... he's damn sure gonna do it. And wreck everything trying to stop him.

[LTcaughthog]

Hahaha I hear ya on that one mr jimmy. People on here crack me up sometimes !!

If you like your dogs then that's all that matters. Who cares what everyone else thinks. And when it comes too bad mouthing other people's dogs. It's unnecessary and childish.

Kevin N explained it perfectly I think
