Grunterhunter28 , in box or text 601-479-2022 , I got a spot or two and would be glad for u to go along and hunt . They are right , spots are hard to find . Im looking everyday ,lol. People are funny about dogs in Mississippi .

Thanks DWEST ,

I downloaded it to a micro sd card and I will try it when I get home . I got Mississippi , Florida , Alabama and Texas . I may get a chance to hot out west one day when the money and time is goin good . Thanks again for the help and God bless .

Yeah I tried to search for it but no results . I know for sure I seen it a few months back . And yes the 220 will take the micro sd card . I been doin fine without it , but a few places I been hunting lately it would really be helpful .

Can anybody tell me which thread or were I can find the info to load a free topo map for my Astro 220 ? I know I read it a while back but was unable to locate it . Thanks in Advance .

My Grandpa's little gyp accidentally got bred to the neighbors pitt .lol. Anyway I was wondering what yaws opinion on these pups would be . I am thinking of getting a few and trying to train them as small catch dogs . I figure with the size I would use two . And I figure it would be easy to get them thru some of these thick briar thickets we have here in Central Mississippi . The mama is gritty and tries to catch just about everything . I know for a fact she had even had her turn on a hog or two . Shes is tough to be no bigger than she is . The daddy , I have no idea may just of been a yard dog ?

Seems like he dont mind putting teeth to one at all to turn'em . Nice dog !

Ive got  a 9mm Hi-point that Ive used for a while and I like it very well . Had to shoot two mocassins last summer with it and it is very accurate to say the least . Both were head shots , one being very close and the other being 15 yards or so . I have target practiced at further distances and accuracy was still good . It seems to be made good and for no more money than I have in it I dont mind the thought of loosing it or getting it packed with mud .

Ive got to go see a guy friday about a plott gyp that may know , Im gonna call him today I would be glad to find out . He sales alot of bay pen dogs . Were about in North MS do you live .

Dogemdownsouth.com is a pretty good site for hog hunters .

I had the same problem with my dc 40's less than 7 months old . I called garmin and they sent me 3 new antennas for my collars . I put them on Christmas day and tried them the next . I got away from one dog I left in the trailer almost a mile and still picked up good . The other collar never lost signal . I hope the problem is solved . May want to call and ask them to send you new antennas for your collars .

Prayers sent !

Awesome Video !

 Colby, thanks for the pics . Ive got a Blue Valentine bred mare Im gonna use . She is nice had her green broke half way or so at the beginning of summer and work kept me from riding , I saddled her saturday and she picked up were she left off . I think she will do good on hogs . Nothing seems to bother her to bad . But she is young and you never know . Im gonna start leading some dogs off of her and tying her close by when I let the pups bay . Thanks again for the advice .

That about says it all . We need to always put GOD first in everything we do . And when we dont think we need him , he will show us just how much we do .

I spoke with a rep on the phone the other day , when I was thinking of tradiing in my e collars for something better . Didnt get into great detail , but he said he has used this unit some and was getting 5 miles of range in wooded areas . Dont know how true that was for sure . He said you could mark different points on it . It just doesnt have all the graphics like the astro . I had good luck with the e collars I bought years ago . If it would get the range that the rep said he got I would like to have it . I have a number I will try to find in a day or two and post for you and they can give you the low down on it .

We will keep his family in our prayers .

Thanks for all the advice . I will try a little of all of it . I did see the videos on utube , and they are pretty cool . I was wondering what those horses were goin to do whe those pigs ran under their feet . lol . It was a shock to me they were steady and calm . I have seen horses that wouldnt even load in a trailer that has hauled hogs before . This arto be a fun process .lol. Thanks again . 

Just wondering if any of you guys hunt hogs on horses . Got some young horses I have thought about using and was curious on how to get them used to hog hunting . Was worrired when we got to a bay that the horse would be uneasy and scared . I always work my colts on dragging something behind them , but never a squeling pig . Any ideas that would be helpful . Thanks

We have been seeing this alot here in Mississippi . We have struck on fresh sign and the dogs will keep going and going . I also talk to a few friends lately and they have been having the same trouble . I was told that most of these hogs have just been plain educated to run and keep running .

Nice pig, will make a nice trophy . I havnt ever seen or didnt know they would grow like that .
