One other thing that gets me about these contest. Everybody thinks if you win these things it means you have better dogs than the next guy that could be the furtherst from the truth for the most part . Most the time 99.9% of the time all it means is you have better places to hunt than most are the next guy other than that it is just being in the right place at the right time with the right dogs. There is nobody on here that can tell me some people dont load these places with hogs just for these contest . Lieing and cheating has been a part of competetion since the day it was invented its sad but its true . You can either live with it are try to change it good luck with both .
that is exactly why I never hunted them...when you have plenty of spots with lots of hogs, not to mention open woods, and then special places that haven't been dogged...no since in wasting my money...right now I don't even have my own places...and the places we hunt the hogs are smart and the palmettos thick...
