For you Alfa or Garmin gurus

What Mike says is true. The hog uses the terrain to his advantage. Also true, Hogs today no matter where they are at have been dogged by somebody. For the most part, Open virgin timber is a thing of the past & cutovers are more common, here anyway. We have also had enough rain where there is water everywhere which cools the hog & dogs. If your dogs have enough stick, they will register some very long races if they want to run & basicly they get ahead & stay in that trot which is hard to break a hog down. Maybe some of those researchers might learn a thing or two if he hunts with a hoghunter who has dogs with bottom. As far as you saying hogs cannot do it, you are merely speculating because you have never seen it done. What amazes me is how far some of those hogs run, that have outrun us. lol
