Went out on a quick hunt where Ive been seeing hogs on the game camera. We went to the first waterhole that had alot of sign with no luck so we loaded the dogs up and headed to the next waterhole. My mother in law got me a go pro camera so I figured I would test it out.  I put the camera on my loose baying dog Goose to see what kind of footage I could get. We were downwind from the next waterhole about two hundred yards and Goose and Thor were acting piggy so we dropped the dogs and had Rhino the catchdog on a lead for some backup. I could see some movement behind the waterhole so I ran up to the windmill and climbed up to get a better view. Sure enough Goose was hot on the trail opening up for the other dogs to join in. We were heading towards the bay and there were about ten big hogs and a bunch of little football sized hogs running straight towards us. The hogs got about thirty yards from us and I cut Rhino loose an I get down in my samarai stance with my sticking knife out ready for battle.  The hogs went everywhere and the dogs singled one out and it was lights out for him. Goose takes off after the pack and herds the hogs right back toward the dogs for another catch. Night night for number two hog. Then the dogs singled another hog out by the waterhole and that was lights out for number three hog. The dogs did great and I was proud of Goose for rolling out working the hogs in the open country. This is the first video I have ever posted but I hope you enjoy it.  http://youtu.be/GnEvNyQBekU

Thanks Canyon it was a fun quick hunt. I have the go pro mounted to a cut collar. I drilled four holes through the collar and bolted on to the base of the camera. Then I drilled a tiny hole through the housing on both sides and used zip ties and secured it to a larger zip tie that is secured to the collar just in case the camera mount breaks. If you hunt near water you probably will want to use some silicone to cover the holes to the housing to keep it waterproof. Hope that helps you out.

Good hunt buddy, you can also tie up the go pro through the rod that runs throughout the door. I'll post a pic in the AM.
