I went to hunt by myself early Saturday morning, and I was driving in through a big pasture toward the river when I heard my 1 year old Walker gyp, Lowbawl, open up in the trailer. It was still dark and I decided that would trust her and see if she could work it out in the next 20 minutes or so before the sun comes up. I turn her and my 2 year old red gyp, Tina out and they run around the trailer acting like they can smell where something walked thru the pasture. Lowbawl is only 13 months old and has found and bayed probably 15 hogs on her own this year. She works her way into the young pine plantation and opens twice at 300 yds. She is trash broke, so I know she smells where a hog was. All of a sudden I hear Tina explode into a hard bay, and then Lowbawl starts bawwling hard, and I can tell that they are looking at him. I turn loose my ROUGH BMC/Lacy dog 'Buttermilk' and my 10 month old Airedale X pup, Yorkie, to them and I hear Buttermilk try to catch when he gets there, and then start baying too (very unusual). I can tell it must be a good one. Well, I grab my catchdog, Chico, of 5 years out of the truck and through the plantaion we go. The sun is just now starting to give some light. I get within 20 yds and turn him loose and hear the battle begin. I head in there and noticed Buttermilk's collar laying on the ground, cut in 1/2. I come out on a pipeline and can see the hogs butt sticking out into the opening. I grab him and flip him and notice that he has my catchdogs collar hooked by his tusk. I had to tie him real fast, and then roll him over to his other side to pull my bulldog off of him. He put up a good fight, but he met his match with that crew. All the dogs are going to be ok and I have a new set tusks to show off. Enjoy. Sun starting to come up on Saturday.  Caught hog! Look at my 7 month old Kemmer, Hippy, baying his head off from the front off the trailer!  Tina and Lowbawl. Good dogs.

Love it. I'm glad you trusted your hound. It built both your confidences.

Marshall,
Looks to me like you have some good pups coming on...
Are you still hunting the sire and dam to the pups?
