Hi everyone, new to the site. I live in ohio, only been hoggin for a couple years. I only have these russian type hogs here and was just wonderin how yur dogs stop em. There all runners , big or small I've had just enough luck to keep me hooked but not enough to feel like I know what I'm doin ! Very frustrating. Have tried lots of dogs currently usin bird bull crosses. Any help will be appreciated ! Thanks

Gritty or real close baying and at least 5 dogs  or just plain catchin hell hounds..  Seriously..we have our share of runner too, my dogs are on the gritty/rough side but not catchy..this doesn't mean they won't run but you might slow them down long enough to get a catchdog on them

Critter, yur probly right. My best dog is loose bayin not what you'd call catchy he can't keep one bayed long enough for me to get help to him. Seems like every hog we find is 300 lbs. Or more. Smallest I've ever caught was bout 130. Why can't I find any little pigs for em ?

Ya tn. Frank doesn't do it anymore. Its me swisher and nik palmer. There's probly a few more I don't know but what I'm gettin at is these hogs don't get a lot of dog pressure. They just naturally run most of the time it seems. I'm sure some dog power will help. Up here were all still new to the sport, a lot to learn yet !

That sounds like the boars in the bandera.They stocked some pures in the 3o's and you know when your on one,they runlike deer swim like fish,and fight like mexican fightingbulls.when onekicks my gritty packs butt 2 or 3 times i call Lion and boar hunter up. He brings his loose baying wolfpack they run him into the dirt he shoots him in the beak we take a pic or two and walk off 90%of the time with out a scratch. HECK A STAPLE GUN WILL RUST BEFORE HE WILL USE IT UP

Hillcountry, u got it man. I hunt around a lot of floods and these hogs love that water ! They will make a b line for the floodzones swim a damn mile thru the stuff then run 5 miles (all up) then sit bak and laugh at us. Makes me tired just thinkin bout it. Make it to the top where it bayed, he breaks and starts all over again. But I guess were havin fun cause we keep goin back !! Lol

Why should I trade one tyrant three thousand miles away for three thousand tyrants one mile away? An elected legislature can trample a man's rights as easily as a king can!

Hillcountry, last year we bayed 3 big ones all together at about 8 am. They broke and the little gyp we had singled one out. She ran that hog 12 miles on the garmin. We ended up pullin her off in the dark that night. We didn't have lights, was supposed to be a morning hunt !collar was dying. We were in a bad spot the hog acted like he wasn't even winded.

I hadn't considered that. I'm usually couple hundred yads away at least. If that's the case what wupld you do. Do you mean that the dogs trying to catch and that makes it break ?

Hillbilly, if ya ever come across those dogs or some like them I'd be interested. Hard to get dogs up here and because there's so few hogs its hard to make dogs too !
