I do not know a lot about the situation as a whole but believe they did away with the "Hunt for the Hungry" because hunter's harvest no longer accepted wild hogs. I can tell you from experience...trying to find a place to go with dead feral hogs is not easy. I worked on that last year for the LSWDA and never found anyone willing to accept them for donations.
However...I dont see why it be an issue for the TDHA to make money off the hunt to help support the fight for dog hunter's rights. Mr Mason and others spend lots of time informing hunters of bills that hurt our hunting rights and makes trips to Austin for legislature meetings. In order to have a say and voice "our" opinion...it cost money. These organizations and legislatures want donations!
All that said.....I do not agree with the no barr rule and I dont even know what a barr looks like.
Im half ass confused with this catch n tie thing as it is.
My theory is to crown the real champion and do most hogs in a stringer.
