My buddy and I had been talking for several weeks about his brother coming home for a couple of weeks from Iraq. He has been over there for quit awhile and when he comes home we try to line up a good hog hunt for him. We meet up at the property at day break and after some laughing and a little B-s-ing we loaded the dogs on the four wheeler and headed down the main road on the property. After a short ride down the trail we turn the dogs loose. They went in the woods around 500 yards and split up. Graham came back to us. Cheetah, Cross, and the pup where quick to get out of hearing about .71 to be exact. We loaded Graham on the four wheeler and headed towards them. Half way to the dogs we could see on the garmin that they where bayed right on the bank of the river. We pulled down to the end of the trail which ended on the river. As soon as we turn the four wheeler off we could hear cross and cheetah bayed solid. We grabed the bulldog and headed that way. When we got to the bay it was not good. 10 foot shear drop big nasty 275 boar with teeth in about two foot of water at the bottom. Before doing some much needed consideration I turn the bulldog loose ( proven 90lb AB ) straight over the bank he went. After a brief scuffle the bulldog had the hog caught. Out into the river they went. For the next thirty minutes my bulldog and two bay dogs had taken the worst beating they have ever taken. It was a very bad situation that should have been thought about alot more. After hanging from vines from the side of the bank we where able to catch one bay dog and the cd that was cut up and idled from taking in way to much water. Cross sat and bayed the hog for twenty-five more minutes while robert went all the way back to the truck and got the 45-70. When he got back he head shot the hog. The hog starts out into the river. Robert says thats the biggest hog he's ever killed. So to get a pic of the pig he strips down to his underwear and jumps into the river after the hog. I promise he is not naked he has underwear on. lol  |
