It seems like all we catch is boars Don't get me wrong I like catching any nice hog big or small So I looked in my book that I have an the group that I hunt with To see in the past three weeks we have caught twenty one boar an one sow Has any of u guys been having this happen where it seems like all you catch is one or the other Title: Re: more boars Post by: halfbreed on January 12, 2013, 08:56:06 am when i was hunting heavy [with the catahoulas] i had times like that cur dogs just love a hot track or a wing current and go for the strongest scent wich is the boars , least that's my philosphy on the subject . seems like when i started crossing on the hounds i started mixing it up a little more .

we hunt hounds and blackmouth its just strange to me its like or dog will ethier catch alot of one then switch it up Title: Re: more boars Post by: redline on January 12, 2013, 10:06:21 am I would assume boars are easier to trail and smell from a distance due to their scent. Also there sometimes more likely to stop and stand their ground and maybe the dogs learn this and assume their race will be shorter if they trail a boar.

Title: Re: more boars Post by: BA-IV on January 16, 2013, 01:17:34 pm I could care less about catching sows and shoats. I go hunting to catch the biggest boar OR Barr hog out there.
The only shoat I want to catch is a boar shoat, so I can turn him into a Barr :D Title: Re: more boars Post by: Jdcraig616 on January 17, 2013, 10:23:14 am The last 7 I caught have been sows!
