Nice hog.  I always considered it cheating to hunt with dogs.  I think it is much more challenging and requires much more skill if you hunt without them.  But to each their own.  Dawn 

hunting with dog is not cheating its more fun. and the hog have a 50% of geting away
if ur hunting with a gun the hog have 0%  thats if u can shoot..
 how can u call it skill up in a tree with a 270 or 30-30 weighing for one to walk under u
heres one more pic of 1 friend and i got

I let Nathan's do all my pig hunting for me... :pig.gif


Now that's cheating. :wink.gif

Yeah, it's not cheating and a lot of fun to have 4 or 5 dogs hold down a hog so you can walk up and execute it.  That's like saying a gang rape is more fun because the victim has a 0% chance of getting away.  Hunting with dogs is not sport; you might as well call it slaughter.  I have always, and forever will, refuse to hunt with dogs.  Just my $.02.  I do hunt and I hunt with guns.  I have made head shots on deer from over 300 yards.  That's skill and it is rewarding to make that kind of shot.  I just dont see the satisfaction of shooting a hog that is, for all practical purposes, tied down.  You may as well buy your pork from Publix with that strategy. 

Eiger ,
Spend the money up front on a good set of vests for your dogs.
No reason anybody's dog should be gutted now adays , good dogs are hard to come by.
Post pictures of them with vests when you gettem.
Look for ads in Hog Hunter magazine .

Hey Eiger great pics thanks for posting! I know you had sonme fun and you put some vittles on the table!

Nice pics! Looks like a great time.

Thanks for posting.

Actully I think it is cheating to sit in a stand 300yds away and shoot them with out them knowing you are there or to send in the dogs. The only way to truly hunt is to use your bare hands and a good ole rock!!!!!!! J/K
Nice hog when is the BBQ???

I've hunted with dogs and still do when I can. I love it and it's definitely a challenge. It's real easy to set up and shoot hogs from a distance. They're not exactly the most allusive animal and certainly nowhere on par with a white tail when it comes to difficulty from the tree stand.

Personally, I'm a spot and stalk or track and stalk fan.

sick hogs!@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i hunt with dogs tooo, and its  soooo much more of a thrill  then siting in a stand waiting


Q

what kinda dogs do you use for bay ? and for catch

black and tan currs  pit bull for catch

I grew up with boys from Lutz that used nothing but a couple dogs and a Buck knife. I don't see anything wrong with it. I just don't see hunting and killing to hang it on the wall. If you kill it and you eat it I say it's all good. I would definitely invest in armor for the dogs to keep them safe. Thanks for sharing the pics. And when's the pig roast ?

roast was last week .. to late  sorry ....     and i dont head hunt  if i dont eat it . it gets given away ..... 

Well you let me know when you have some to give away  ;)

i have hunted with highly trained parrots that call for the pig. they say,"come here piggy piggy piggy" and when he gets close i duct tape his legs and give him a swift kick in the don corleone's. ha ha jk nice hog. ;D
