1  HOG & DOGS / DOGS ON HOGS / Re: Not eating Boars?????? on: May 17, 2010, 05:13:25 pm
Hey,  Outlaw here is some FYI that u may find interesting!!

Androstenone is found in high concentrations in a male pig's saliva.  When a female pig that is in heat smells this, she assumes the mating stance.  The vameronasal organ is the auxiliary olfactory sense organ that is responsible for the detection of pheromones as more than just an odor.  Which basically acts as an aphrodisiac!  Too bad humans lack these sensory cells needed to detect pheromones beyond smell.  Kiss
Also, the reason why people both smell a boar's smell and have two seperate, distinct discriptions is the fact that there are genetic differences in our OR7D4 receptor, which detects the chemical.  People that possess two proper genes for OR7D4 tend to describe the odor of the steriod as a urine smell, where those with only one proper genes tend to describe it as weak or not able to detect it.

Sorry, I think I got off track a little...thought some of ya'll might find it interesting?!?!

When I was fresh out of high school I made about 100 pounds of sausage out of a big boar.  You couldn't be in the house with it while it was cooking!  I was obviously pissed that it was not edible.  I did a little research to find out what the problem may be.  A boar has a preputial diverticulum (pouch) that is dorsal to the piss hole.  The diverticulum accumulates urine, secretions, and deal cells which contribute to the typical oder of a mature boar.  It is easily removed prior to skinning.  If the diverticulum is properly removed the meat will taste no different no matter the size of the boar.  After figuring this out I have had no problem with the taste of a boar.  The reason boars get a bad rap is the diverticulum in located on the midline on the belly, exactally where people typically cut to remove hide and guts.  Once this pouch is cut the contents easily come in contact with a significant portion meat.   You are not going to be able to wash it off, it is the culprit on giving boars a bad rap. 
Even though outlaw obviously wants his 50 cents for the vocabulary usage, I'll have to agree with him.
Cut a 6-8 inch diameter circle around the penis then clean it and you'll never be able to tell the difference at the dinner table.
It doesn't matter how big either..not trying to be a big shot, just done it and seen it done about 50-75 times over the last 3 years since I learned the trick.  Great tip!!  It absolutely works!!

Theres been PLENTY of that going around, and the best advice given:

HUNT WITH THE DOGS BEFORE YOU BUY!!!

Yeah, I wanted to, but the distance made it tough...got the name from a guy who was happy with pups from the dude.  I must of got the culls!!

I recently bought some high dollar dogs with a supposed guarantee.  Well, when they turned out to be culls at best, the fella won't keep his word.  The only problem I have is it's an 8 hour drive one way to visit in person.  Looks like I may have to cancel a hunt for a road trip.  Anyone else experienced this before?

Very good point and taken.  Been a family friend for years, kinda hard to do.

Here in the Brazos, I've experiened on many occasions that an individual tends to think that every hog that is bayed is because of HIS dog.  I'm not one to get in a pissing contest, but we hunt up to 10 dogs at a time and this gets old.  Anyone else have a quick claim friend (as if no-one elses dogs could or would be the one who found or first bayed every pig caught!).  Funny thing is--when he isn't with us, we do just as good!!!
