RE: Hog Dogs???
Hunted back before the SC laws changed. We used to catch and resell to places that offered guided trips. Made some good money back in the college days. Guys I hunted with had four walkers and three pitbulls. It'll give you a new found respect for pitbulls.
We were catching hogs. But part of our agreement with the landowners (who want them all dead) is that we don't let hogs go. If its little or a sow, it gets the knife or the gun or the whatever... we ran out of ways to kill 'em. Boars, anything about 90#s and up, got caught, transported and sold.
Nothing like a cold beer and a suckling piglet cooked in the over real slow all day after tromping through snake infested swamps in the spring and summer.
