How do you handle a rally? The past few hunts I've been on my dogs bayed up big groups of good hogs. My dogs use to be pretty gritty and would normally bust up the rally, but now I run a mountain cur cross and some bird dogs that seem to hold a rally bayed pretty good. Congrats on getting rid of your bay busters. Most people never see the light. Enjoy those rallies. They are the exception not the norm now days as someone else pointed out. I Just watch them from down wind and stay still. Keep your catch dog ready and when the lead sow charges out, put em on her. The rest of the hogs will be more apt to become confused and easier to catch with out their leader. Waylon |

I bayed a group of hogs this morning and dogs had one caught an hogs still didn't run off. I just made a lot of Racket coming thru lol. But couple years ago me n some buddies bayed a big wod of hogs at night an we literally walked right up to them 10yds away an watched them seem like forever only had one catch dog turned him loose an he caught hogs still rattled around each other an we literally walked up an grabbed a couple while ther backs were turned. We caught 3 of those an only one was caught by a dog
Had a group break up once a while back after we cut the cd loose ad he ran after one an the bay dogs after another. My two gyps an a buddy's male had a young boar bayed in a swamp so my buddy held his light in its eyes and I walked through the water slowly behind and legge that sucker and the bay dogs helped me out and caught on. Even my loose female caught for once in her life. Guess she knew I wouldn't mind the help. Was a good rush! |

Man, bayed up a group of 15 or so this morning... Only one experienced find dog and a few pups. Really pumped for em. Didn't really know what to do with it so we released the catch dogs... They musta broke right before or something. Not really sure what happened but we chased on pig for over 2 miles... DIDNT CATCH A SINGLE HOG. First time my dogs have ever bayed multiple hogs in one sitting... But I'd heard sometimes if the catch dogs don't have a specific pig to aim at sometimes they'll miss. Well mine did... And I'm sore over it lol

Wait till you have a sounder with 60+ and that bulldog runs in and disappears behind a wall of hogs that just absorb him.
Sounders can be tricky and dangerous on your catching power if not approached and handled correctly.
One trick i have witnessed and successfully pulled off was putting your catchdog on a long rope and you and your buddies yoyo him in to pick off the outskirt hogs one at a time and drag them back away from the sounder.
Crazy sounding but it works like a charm .....if ya got some heavy rope or lasso.
Dog is gonna take some licks though until you pull them free away from the guard boars and sows that charge out a ways to protect the caught and squeeling one.
Also.....hope yall got some help on that rope ....fun as all get out .......but snatching three or four 200+ and dragging them and the dog 30 or 40 ft is a workout.

Sounders (we just refer to them as "mobs") as a general rule here are more common in areas where piglets are predated by dingoes. In the western and northern parts. If its open country and theres not a rifle around we have ridden into the mob on a quad to split them up a bit or get them "lined out" to let the dogs have a better crack at them.

Monday afternoon my pups were on a solo hunt. Struck and bayed a group of 12. Couldn't have been more happier. I was by myself. Let them work for a good while then rode up there horseback as I had no catch dog. Decided I'd rope one. Rode around them hogs 5 or 6 times real tight, less than 5 yards. Drug out the rope, fixin to start my swing when the lead sow bolted. Them pups didn't give her nothing they caught her less than 75 yards. She did make it in the pond though. As she went under dogs came off, and when she came back up I roped her and drug her out. Flipped and tied by myself. I really wanted to rope, drag, and tie as many as I could. But I knew I had to get that one for the pups morale. I did watch the rest of the sounder as I rode over to the pond.....they just walked off like nothing ever happened.
