Got boogered twice pretty bad.
First time was a pig that I barred, bout a 175 lbs boar, he had been hobbled for a while because we were catching other pigs. I wanted to make sure he was gonna get up and live, if not, I was goin to put him down. Gave him a nudge in the rear once... nothin, nudge in the rear twice... nothin, went in for the third nudge and he decided he was gonna get up and live. Must have been hungry too because he thought I was going to be his next meal. Chased me down the fence row, Im running yelling "cut soco loose, cut soco loose", I took a right where the fence was down, he kept on coming and was right on my heels at this point. I jumped up and tucked my legs, he caught my heel and put me on my back, thankfully he kept on keeping on across the field.
Second time was last fall, 283 lbs boar. Everyone else went to take a dog to the vet. I went to drag the hog down the hill into the field, only about fifteen yards. He had broke his hobbles while we were tending dogs, I could see by the track that some of his legs were still hobbled but lost the trail. Cut Lacy back loose, she went and bayed across the field at the tree line. I walked down and saw the boar in the dry creek bed facing lacy. I didn't want to cut soco loose because this boar was expecting him and I didn't have any gear on him, so I got the bright idea that I would tip toe in behind him, while lacy had him bayed... bad idea. Long story short, he ended up on top of me, I screened like a girl, then got him catch dog style, took lacy's collar and clipped him to a tree. Then I thanked god and thought about how stupid I was till everyone showed back up to help me.
