craig had been watching a corn feild and had been seeing some giant tracks around it and also the owner had seen some rooten in the middle of the feild by the center pivot of a irragation water & to make the story even better craig had went close to the same area the year before & found a hog that trashed his cd & a up and coming pup costing a 1000 at the vet and the boar hog getting away , with that told craig had a score to even up with a bad boar and me knowing this story I was a little scared for my dogs going to this place knowing we might meet up  with this hog . we met at craigs and circled the corn feild on foot with the dogs & didnt hit anything , so we regrouped and took a path towards the middle of the feild , before we got there the dogs had bayed , I let the  2  cds loose & took off running behind them not being able to see anything but 10 foot tall corn stalks , we broke out in a 20 yard opening in the center of the feild where the pivot was and a cage surrounding it the hog had backed up against it & was slinging dogs left & right , I tried to grab the hog by the back leg but the hog slung my smallest cd off and came at me with the 70 lb  cd on his side & I shot him in the head to end his dog thrashing career . craig scored the hog & he scored # 3 in the open feild weight class hogs 330lbs 3 inch tusk 2.5 inch circumfrence also my dogs were wearing guardian series vest , they saved the cds life , the guardian kevlar had 6 holes through the neck area in the vest and cost me 500 at the vet , I told jc the story at ugly dog and ask them if they could repair the vest & he said they could so I sent them the vest, so yesterday I recieved the vest in the mail & opened the box & had two brand new guardian kevlars to replace the others at no charge , a top notch outfit thank you ugly dog , by the way craig is mounting the hog
