Title: 410 lb Barr Post by: clint on February 01, 2014, 10:57:12 pm Well I got contacted from a guy about 2 months ago about a big Barr that had been flipping feeders over and tearing stuff up. So we finally get a day picked out. We meet up about 7 am yesterday morning and start hunting. Dogs make a few 6-800 yd rounds and we get a bay, then a squeal. We get in there and they got a 130 lb boar stretched out. Get him caught and cut, the dogs roll out and bay a sow about 175 lbs, catch and tie her for meat. Loaded the dogs and hunt till about lunch catching a few shoats, but still looking for big boy. Get a bay going with 4 dogs. The hog broke and 3 dogs left and my 8 month old gyp came back to us, disappointed I loaded her up. We start easing toward the dogs as they were getting over a mile away. On our way to them my puppy starts going crazy, we figured a hog slipped out of the bay. So we cut her loose and she trailed about 1000 yds and it showed her treed. Well we were trying to figure out what to do with the older dogs. 15 minutes go by and she's still bayed. So we start heading towards her and decide we will come back and get older dogs. We get within 400 yds and she's hammering, all we had was two more 8 month old puppies out of the same litter and 2 young catch dogs. So we turn the puppies out to her and head in there with the catch dogs. We get within 20 yds and turn the bulldogs loose as it was pretty thick. The hog breaks before they get there and he makes it about 75 yds. Then they caught him, I get to him and realize it's him. I start to try to get behind him and he slings both catch dogs off and runs over my buddy behind me lol. Scary at first but funny now. He makes it about 75 more yards and it was a done deal. Got him out and weighed him. He was right at 410 lbs. Caught with two 35 lb bulldogs and bayed by a 8 month old gyp for about 20 minutes. I've caught only one other hog that I actually weighed over 400 and several others I think that were close but didn't weigh them.

Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: Judge peel on February 02, 2014, 08:38:17 am Heck of a job fellas
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: TShelly on February 02, 2014, 09:02:20 am Helluva hog buddy!! Congrats on breaking the 400 mark again. Not many people in that club
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: clint on February 02, 2014, 09:14:41 am Thanks everybody, yea I'm proud of my puppy. She has found 3 hogs since jan. 4th (her first day in the woods).
Thanks tony, yea it's a hard club to get in to. Aren't many 400 lbrs walking around lol he's going on the wall for me, I figured he was wall worthy! Lol Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: TeJaShOgSlAyER on February 02, 2014, 09:20:04 am Damn fine Barr boys man he is a stud
Title: Re: Post by: Peachcreek on February 02, 2014, 09:48:52 am Damn good one Clint. What is the back ground on them pups? I would say they are some early starters.
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: clint on February 02, 2014, 09:57:07 am They go back a ways lol this particular cross has 1/8th Parker and the rest is just our stock. We've had this line going about 12 years now. The original male dog we started with had a great bloodline from way back. We just built off of that and they always seem to produce good pups that start early like she has.
Title: Re: Post by: Peachcreek on February 02, 2014, 10:00:28 am Well, that tells me allot...lol thanks ;)
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: clint on February 02, 2014, 10:06:27 am The original dogs we started with are from an old man that has passed away now. He had been hunting forever and we bred our first gyp to his best male at the time. That's where we started our own little line.
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: Easttexasoutlaw on February 02, 2014, 10:11:12 am Good hog man I caught one out of the same deer lease about 6 yrs ago that was a Barr hog he weighed over 400 also he had the same markings

Thanks tony, yea it's a hard club to get in to. Aren't many 400 lbrs walking around lol he's going on the wall for me, I figured he was wall worthy! Lol No doubt! We have caught three 400#'ers in the last 3 years lol a crazy streak. And we might not ever break it again. Two of them are being mounted and should be ready for pick up within the month. We went with full pedestal mounts on both. I will try and get you some pics soon. Congrats again Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: YELLOWBLACKMASK on February 02, 2014, 12:58:28 pm Mighty fine hog boys.
Curiosity ......what were his ear markings and what area of East Tx was he caught? Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: MB650 on February 02, 2014, 01:13:52 pm Nice hog. Way to go.
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: clint on February 02, 2014, 01:25:08 pm Mighty fine hog boys. Curiosity ......what were his ear markings and what area of East Tx was he caught? Just had a bobbed tail. His ear was just tore from the first time he was caught, not a mark. Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: Mike on February 02, 2014, 01:38:22 pm Helluva barr Clint!

Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: hoghunter71409 on February 02, 2014, 06:59:40 pm My hat is off to you man! I don't even want to post the pic of my barr now. My little punnie barr would have been like a tick on that big boys back! ;)
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: Van Dorn on February 02, 2014, 07:04:57 pm Clint congrats on that big Trinity County Barr!
Tony and I are getting ours mounted at Southern Wings Taxidermy in Huntsville! Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: clint on February 02, 2014, 07:24:51 pm How was there work? And what kinda price range if you don't mind me asking?
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: Cajun on February 02, 2014, 09:59:55 pm That is a heck of a barr. Nice job. Not really the size of a bulldog that matters but the bite & apparently your catchdogs have the right bite.
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: cantexduck on February 02, 2014, 10:00:56 pm Really nice Barr Clint.
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: TShelly on February 03, 2014, 05:34:21 am How was there work? And what kinda price range if you don't mind me asking? I will run out there today and get a price for you and some pictures. We didn't really ask. They are very reasonable though. Wall pedestaled deer mounts run $400. I've taken both of my dad's 160" deer last two years there. Erik gets all his done as well, quality work!! Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: clint on February 03, 2014, 07:55:57 am Thanks Tony

(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/02/04/yse2yda4.jpg) They are obviously not finished yet but here they are.. 400 and 406 pounds They had to order the largest manican available and still modify it to make it larger. $600 for your mount Clint. If you want more info on who to talk to if you are interested just let us know. Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: Mike on February 03, 2014, 10:35:16 am Those good Tony... are they using the real teeth on them?
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: TShelly on February 03, 2014, 10:44:07 am Yessir Mike, real teeth
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: MFKennels on February 03, 2014, 11:34:35 am Tony that landowner ever get that tusky sow mounted we caught

Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: TShelly on February 03, 2014, 12:07:57 pm I'll find out Mathew
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: HOGHUNTERX2 on February 03, 2014, 12:09:15 pm That's a good un!!!
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: Wmwendler on February 04, 2014, 10:31:45 pm Real teeth are the way to go in my opinion. Fakes are just too generic.
Title: Re: 410 lb Barr Post by: justincorbell on February 04, 2014, 10:57:34 pm Those mounts are gonna be awesome when they are done! Be sure to post some pics when you get em back.

I was very very pleased with the work. Travis, I used overall taxidermy in new caney. Very nice work and very reasonable on price. I would recommend him to anyone.
