Woke up New Year’s Eve and was scrolling through Facebook. Memory popped up me and a buddy went behind my house last year and killed a heck of a boar. Decided to go see if his little brother was hanging around this year.
Carried grandma sketch, her 2 8 month old pups spoon and Misty. And my greyhound Lizzo for catch power.
Casted them a direction we don’t normally go these days below the cow pens into a dry branch. 10 minutes sketch spoon and Misty were standing on one’s head at 380.
Me and lizzo go to em. As I’m coming on them I had to get a laugh at my little shorty jack russel, Remmy, he was in the baying with the big dogs. I haven’t had him but for a few months and the only other hog or 2 he’s seen in a trailer he didn’t care much about. I see the hog looking right at
me straight ahead 15 yards so I send lizzo.
Should be easy catch. Or I thought so until she hit and I come blowing in there to realize she’s now getting jumped by maybe 4-5 other hogs i never saw. Had us a pretty good rodeo going for about 45 seconds. Finally dust settled, little spoon got one singled and went to baying and about the time the rest were joining in, lizzo swallowed an ear and was hooked up for good.
Took me forever and a day it seemed to kill him. Grabbed wrong knife out of our bag walking out of the house. Got him knocked down none the less and couldn’t have been prouder. Lizzo first hunt back since trying to breed her 4 months ago. Spoon and Misty first ever hog in the woods and they showed me all I could have asked to see. Even remmy getting in the mix was awesome as he was bulldog caught when i legged the hog lmao. All in all good way to finish year and excited for the new one.
