Curs = waste of time and money

Hounds = good to put pork on the dinner table

Bluetick = best hog dog out there.

Cutter Bay is a professional cheerleader that is why he likes them hounds making all that noise ;D

TERMS USED IN THE FIELD
THIS IS JUST A LITTLE SECTION I ADDED FOR FUN. WHEN I FIRST STARTED HUNTING, I NOTICED HUNTERS USING TERMS I WASN’T FAMILIAR WITH (TYPICAL CITY BOY). HOG HUNTERS SEEM TO HAVE A LANGUAGE ALL THEIR OWN. SO HERE ARE SOME OF THOSE SO YOU DON’T GET LOST IN THE CONVERSATION.

1.)    SHOAT- A SMALL HOG

2.)    BAY- TYPICALLY WHEN DOGS BARK AT A HOG TO KEEP IT FROM RUNNING

3.)    STRIKE DOG- A DOG THAT SEARCHES OUT AND FINDS THE HOG

4.)    CATCH DOG- A DOG THAT GRABS ONTO THE HOG AND HOLDS IT

5.)    GYP- A FEMALE DOG

6.)    STICKING- TO STAB A HOG

7.)    MULE TAPE- HIGH STRENGTH FLAT ROPE USED TO TIE A HOG

8.)    HOBBLES- STRAPS WITH RINGS USED TO TIE A HOG

9.)    BOOGER BARK- BARKING A DOG WILL SOMETIMES DO WHEN IT IS LOST

10.) CUTTERS- A HOG’S LOWER PROTRUDING TEETH

11.) WHETTERS- A HOG’S UPPER PROTRUDING TEETH

12.)  BARR HOG- A CASTRATED MALE HOG

13.)  BAYED SOLID- THE DOGS HAVE THE HOG STOPPED AND SURROUNDED (YOU MAY ALSO HEAR THIS CALLED “HEMMED UP”)

14.) WALLOW- A  MUD HOLE  A  HOG WILL ROLL AROUND IN TO STAY  COOL

15.) RUB- A POLE OR TREE A HOG HAS RUBBED AGAINST, SOMETIMES LEAVING MUD THERE. 

16.)  TRASHING- WHEN A DOG IS RUNNING OR BARKING AT SOMETHING ELSE BESIDES A HOG

17.) SOUNDER- A LARGE GROUP OF HOGS

18.) RALLY- WHEN A GROUP OF HOGS TAKE AN OFFENSIVE POSTURE PREPARING TO BREAK A BAY
