1-15 and 1-29 2011 Hunts

[Ladogos]

 Went hunting back on the 15th, it was cold and wet . After raoding the dogs for a little while they finally struck and rolled out about a half mile then showed bayed in the water.  I headed to em and when I got there I heard one grunting and heard some of the dogs about 500 yards on up stream.  I knew I didnt waant to get wet and thought it was a good boar by the grunting going on . I found a place to cross the creek with De'Angelo in tow and go to the other side where the cur dogs were caught. When I got to where I could see them it was a double. The curs had two catches about 20 yards apart. It was 2 little boars about 75-80 lbs each .  So I hooked De'Angelo to a tree and jumped down and stuck em both. The best part about it was i didnt even get wet.  Got the pigs out and gutted em and brought em home and put one in the cooker and took it and feed the guys and gals at work.  And I gave the other to a needy family . 



Went hunting again yesterday by myself and hunted for a while rotating dogs out and after about 3 hours Boots, Coal, and Tip struck and ran about 900 yards and bayed up.  I road to about 300 yards and they were hammering so I sent De,Angelo in .  I took off too em and it was a nice little russsian boar .  I got him stuck and took a couple of quick pictures, then checked the dogs out. Boots had a little poke under his jaw but nothing bad . All the other dogs were good. So I loaded him up and headed in . 





When I got home my Grandson wanted me to take his picture with De,Angelo .

 Thanks for all the compliments .  I sure have been having some fun lately in the woods letting my dog work. Ive been trying to let them do more work than actually catching the hog. Im trying to make myself some surenuff dogs.  Dont get me worng, i still LOVe catching the hogs but lately i been slowing down and trying to make it be more about the dog work than catching a hog. BUt it is the icing on the cake.

 Clint , AKA  " HONEY BUNNY "  , If you were as ruff and tuff as i were and not have your wife write all in your drawers you would be able to load hogs up by yourself too.  LOL ROTFLMAO . Just picking with ya buddy.   

I dropped the tailgate then released the bed so it would tilt. Then tied a rope around the hogs snout and ran it around one of the bars on the Rhino. Then I picked up his front feet and head and layed it on the tailgate and pulled the rope. Kept doing this untill I got his front half on the tailgate. Then tied the rope off . Then I picked up his back legs and rolled his ass end in the bed of the rhino and it fell closed. Then just simply close the tailgate.   Like my dad always told me. The older you get the more you learn to use your brain than your muscle. LOL , Some of that is from necessity as you get older . LOL

I see D'angelo still has issues with letting go--- he takes things to personal, I think you need to send him to therapy--- LOL
