Went last week when there was a little bit of snow left took 3 litter mates that are 13 months old now and really doing good, they struck something and took off, went 1.8 miles and showed treed on a couple of them and pointing on a couple bark indicator on the TT 15 telling me they are bayed. Had to go around 2 fences, and several gates, finally getting on the same place as the dogs, just so happens it is my niece and her husbands place, we were 600 and they started coming back to us, at this point they have been bayed for 20 minutes and quit it. I wasn' liking it but it is what it is. This was the second time the same race has happened with the same result 2 weeks apart.
Dogs go back to the place we started and start acting like they are winding something, go in a big thicket and start hammering, hardly a race at all 100 yards or less. Catch a nice little spotted boar about 65 lbs.

They caught him before the catch dog gets there, we take care of him and they roll out on some more, 21 run out the other side and the race is on! They go over a 1000 and

up in a bad briar patch that I used to bird hunt around, back then it was 20 acres now its 120. Send in ol' Hammer and its a done deal. Dogs did great.
