im new to this sport so im learning something more and more everyday just by asking these veterans and watching what they do and what has worked for them .  that being said , my advice is not golden but what ive been doin works for me .  my small pups i start out on drags (pig hide) getting further and further each time . i rub the hide all over my boots so it masks my smell . when they get good at the drag game then i put them in a pen with small pig and let them go at it for couple min then take them out while they are still barking and then kennel them up .i do this for about a week . then i replace the hide with the small pig and pull him out to about 100 yrds and tie to tree and turn out the pups , getting further and further with the pig everytime . bigger the pups get , the biggger the pig i use .  i try not to use the fourwheeler when i drag the pig to the woods , too many smells Huh? just my preference .  i didnt touch on every little detail but thats it in a nutshell .  if you dont have access to woods , even a field with high grass would do .
