I have really been enjoying these young dogs this yr they're really coming on strong for what I like in one.Hunt before last my buddy Wesley and the boys and I went to a farm down the rd we brought Kc,Peaches and Kong pulled up to a feeder and saw a decent track sent Kc and Kong I knew it old but they smelled it they trailed a half mile to north then a half mile to the east and finally hit the creek and went about .75 south of me before they located her and stretched about 135lb sow.Picked up because she was alone and moved to a field the farmer told me he saw a decent hog in the back of the evening before found her track and sent Peaches she went down in the bottom and trailed her about 900yds and bayed her in the bed caught her and called it a day.

The next hunt my old buddy Rodney from Fl came up we carried Rooster,Kc,Peaches and Kong.Found some tracks in the back of a corn field they just planted sent Rooster and Peaches wasn't long and they had 2 Shoats about 80lbs caught they relayed and got together on a decent boar they ran him about a mile down the creek I went down to where I thought he was going to cross and I heard him hit the water Kc and Kong smelled him so I sent them and toned Rooster and Peaches out cause they were a little behind him it was already hot.Kc and Kong crossed the creek and lined out I lost communications pretty quick on them they were rolling south I had to drive way out and around on the highway probably 10miles atleast but when I got to the south end of the property they were bayed in the nastiest briar and angavine thicket you ever seen he broke before Dozer made contact and they carried him another 500yds and got him stopped again this time Dozer made to him he wasn't that big maybe 150- 175 but he was a runner they ran him about 4 miles as they crow flies and held him bayed a long time.Picked up and went to another field they been rooting it was 12noon and hot by the time we got there but there was some rooting from the night before sent Rooster and Peaches they ground on it for over an hr and about a mile to the east they located them Rooster caught his in a beaver pond and while we were getting to him Peaches fell bayed another 800 to the north took care of Rossters and made our way to Peaches had to walk to her cause no access eased up close and sent Dozer she had a smaller boar about 100lbs bayed in a root ball he saw us turn Dozer loose and broke I let Dozer run with Peaches cause I knew they'd catch him pretty quick well he made it to the big pond and sure enough they were swimming around the dang middle catching way to far out to safely swim my buddy Rodney was trying to get to them but I called him in and said ain't no hog or dog worth your life so we had to watch from the shore for 30 min or so until they drowned him all the while praying there wasn't any gators in there they finally drowned him and I called them in and called it a day with 5.Couldnt be happier with the progress of these young dogs had a great day in the woods with my boys and my old buddy from FL.Didnt get pics of all the hogs but here's the few I did.
