Oh what a thread to see tonight... I go by myself pretty often. Especially lately cause my main buddy is on recovery from knee surgery. Went solo tonight Got on a sure enough bad one I've been after for a long time. Finally got a bulldog hooked and it just took to long to get there(turned him from 50 yards) he was gassed after being caught for about 10 minutes and this hog was just too much for him. Boar Almost got a piece of me as I got to ride on his back for a couple seconds. Then he tossed catch dog for good and packed his bags and left the country. Kicking myself in the ass cause if I'd have had a hand I think I'd have been posting pics of him. It got sketchy but it's the most satisfying feeling to get one caught and killed solo!
I was wondering the same thing 10 minutes for 50 yds?Riding his back?If my bulldog has a ear sucked up and let's go while I'm riding a hog lol than it's time to look for a new bulldog.Don't you grab a tail or leg rather than jump on a hogs back?If not that's what you you should try in the future it's much safer and easier to control the hog.Don't you carry a knife?Good story though keep at it.

One of the main reasons I carry two Bulldogs is more control on the hog and it's easier on the Bulldogs. One bulldog will take more punishment than two, and for me it is more of a pain to deal with two Bulldogs by yourself but I have been doing it for years without to many headaches.

bignasty, his den is in a probably 50 yard ring of bulldozed fallen cedar and scrub brush. Only way to get in is climb over all this junk. It's not easy.

We can sit here and run our mouths back and forth over what happen. Fact of the matter is it went down just like I'm saying it did. This bulldog has done everything I've ever asked of him and will die catching for us. This hog has been ran a lot more than your average hog. He's killed a couple dogs and whooped numerous cur dog asses. Yes it took me probably 10 minutes to make it the 50-75 yards to them. There's a reason I stay away from this corner of the ranch. It's bad news. And my gyp left the bulldog hanging. She stayed back and bayed and wouldn't help grab something. When the hog saw me he came with a purpose and almost left me laying there bleeding next to my dogs. After he tossed bulldog, late took him probably 3.5-4 miles and he busted out a big group of pigs and lost her

There are many places I hunt that it might take you ten min to go 50 yards. But that is the time that u have to dig down deep and push forward. Rule number one never turn your cd loose to the hog if you can't get there fast or willing to die trying Cuz it won't work out. Rule number two always leg the hog over any other method unless your roping it. Rule number three always have a good story ether way lol

Lol I have "slid gratefully" down a steep bank at night and ended up right smack on top of the hog getting bayed... wasn't a bad SOB like you was in though slim. This was about a 150-175 lb boar and luckily he didn't have much hardware. When I "caught" so did the bay dogs. That was a hairy experience to say the least

Shoot man dont beat yourself up, it happens to everyone! Chalk it up as a lesson learned and roll on, i dont care wgat anyone says...NO ONE catches every single hog they bay. Tip your hat to him this time and change things up on his ass next time.

I like that mr. Parker. Good philosophy. I don't carry guns. If the hog gets caught it's killed or tied. If it doesn't get caught then it'll live to fight another day. Beast vs beast in a way. To me shooting a hog is kind of taking the element of why I hunt out of the equation. With that being said there's also times I wish I did carry but it has never been to just kill a pig the dogs couldn't catch. I try not to hunt alone. We are far from any civilization or help if things go bad. Plus we always have dogs getting cut and holding and repair work solo isn't a walk in the park.

I hunt to see the dogs work. I don't hunt to catch hogs. Most places I hunt it's for the ranchers too cover their ass so they don't spend all their time fixing their fields. If baying and shooting is gonna get him killed, that's what I'll do. And he's still gonna be the same nasty maverick boar with a 30-30 in his ear as he would be with a bulldog hanging off it.

I don't understand why you would shoot the hog if you have dogs and a catch dog. That just don't make since to me like going out and shooting a bunch of hogs when your feeding hog dogs. Any one can shoot a animal the reason I have dogs is to let them get there glory and for me to get the satisfaction of training and working the dogs. That sometimes puts u in a bad way but that's the rush of the game. I will never leave a dog hanging if he puts in I will and I expect any one with me to do the same
