Our traps were being non-productive, so we got on horseback yesterday and released the hounds to run races with the pigs. First race the dogs struck just as soon as we let them out of the trailer. Got on a nice boar but he was a runner. It was thick thick cover and the hog was able to outrun the dogs. The hog crossed the river and we had to give up on him. Loaded the dogs and went a couple of miles down the road and turned out again and got in the middle of a sounder pretty quickly. We ended up with 5 hogs, the biggest being just over a hundred and the rest were pretty small. One other hog was shot, but 5 were taken alive. We were runnin 3 black mouth curs, one catahoula and a couple of pits for the catch dogs. All made it out without serious injuries and only got knocked off my horse once. Left my phone in the truck so I didn't get pics, but it was a fun roundup.
