UNDERDOG lost a good one this weekend to a hog. Striker was a grandson to Tweety and littermate to my Hunter dog and Circle C's Ruby gyp. I raised him from a pup and gave him to Bryant as a two year old when he needed a dog. We caught lots of hogs behind him and his brother over the last four years. That big, long legged son of gun could sure stretch out and put the heat on one... haven't seen many that could keep up with him in a hard race. I sure hated to get the news...

Striker at 9 months old...

Thanks Mike and thanks for him as well. He was a good, solid dog and yes he sure could move out on one, flat out smoke one on a good race. He was sure getting solid this last year as the past 6mo or so I was hunting a good bit by myself. It is going to be a chore to fill his void here for sure.  He will be missed for alot of reasons. Just a cool ole dog..

You've hear of el nino....this was el negro!!

If he hunted half as good as he looks ya'll really lost a fine dog. Sorry for your loss.

the few times I had the pleasure of hunting behind him he showed out. best way I could describe him based off the handful of hunts we made together was that he was like a dang ping pong ball......he'd be 600yds that way then 800yds this way then 500yds that way.........lol I will tell you one thing that dang dog did some serious traveling in a nights hunt and stayed busy busy busy in the woods.

I know i've talked about it before on here in the past but a quick funny story about that ol dog........ we were hunting in dayton one night and happened to see some lights where they shouldn't have been. Mr. James left out to go confront the individuals and hunter left out with him...well time goes by and we eventually all meet up.....anyway the folks we run into have at least 7-8 dogs on the ground and we bs with em for a while, hell it had to have been 15-20 minutes and Mr. Bryant happens to look at his gps and shows striker treed like 5 r 600yds past where we are sittin talking to these guys....long story short we cut the bs hop on the buggies and head to em. We get there and low and behold ol striker done found him a boar in a hole.....good night and a great memory of a solid dog! hope you find another just like him Mr. Bryant.
