I just curious to see how you guys jump fences with the mules and if anybody was riding up to the hog and shooting them, anybody got a video of a mule loading up in th eback of a pickupbed with hog dogs??  Ones i had we used a bull halter and 20 foot lead rope, lots of times if we got behind a really tall fence we have to take out the tpost clips and then wrap the lead rope around the top 2 wires and then cluck him over after we pullled it down and wrapped it, I have seen some that wanted a saddle blanket on top of the wire but that is a bad habbit as they wont jump without it if you lose it and wastes time, I had some of those 16 hand mules that would jump a bobwire fence 5 wires with one still in the saddle, not cool at all, way to dangerous at night for sure especialy if its wet or a creek on the other side, one thing for sure with stirups i would get tapaderos in case something happens so u dont get drug with your foot thru the stirup vs a tap that will let ur foot come out after a ways usually.  Anybody got any pics of a mule riding in the truck bed with dogs??  Seems like if u get the right kind of mule who wants to work they will hunt like a dog and smell hogs and snort and go to the bay up even if you have fallen alseep in the saddle.  Any of you guys who ride mules do you hunt at night with them and do you use a NITElite headlight to shoot hogs or do you just get off and stick them??
