Just started getting into it myself. Lots of fun and a pretty dang good adreanaline rush busting through a thicket trying to get to a bay.
Just curious how popular this is elsewhere. I know it's gotten pretty popular in South Arkansas where I live.

Also I might be looking for some hog dogs.... should anyone happen to have any...

I've done it a good bit this past year and I must say I like it.

Ive done it quite a bit over the last 10 years. I dont own any dogs myself because of where I live but friends and cousins have plenty.

If you get your own dogs then make sure you have a good cut kit. Cause it is going to happen.

I started hunting them last year with dogs and it's a lot of fun. I don't have any dogs so I just hunt with people that have them. I also like hunting them at night.

Know a lot of people that do it. A lot of the guys have gotten so into it that they go buy big boars and bring them to their land. Of course all the boars are cut but a lot of the land owners that run dogs have a zero kill policy for hogs on their place.

I love it and now that deer season is out we are going to drop the tailgate next week. Dog wise we mostly have plott dogs along with one blue tick and two walker dogs.

Word advice: Keep your dogs on your land. I had a run in with some guys "just trying to catch their dogs" on my land two weeks ago. I'll post the story one day, waiting for the legal system to work it out.

I made it clear that I would gladly deal with the sheriff over a bunch of dead dogs on my land.

I used to do it a lot, but I always went with people with the dogs and when they started slowing down I stopped and never really got back into it. It was a hell of a trip though.

Take a trip to Winnfield, La. and ask around for hog dogs. There used to be several folks breeding dogs.
There used to be baying dog competitions in Winnfield. Pretty fun watching those things corner a hog and bay it. This was done in a maybe 2 tennis court sized enclosed circle.
Anyone know if they still do this?

I've done a lot of it. It's very easy to train dogs. The only thing I don't like seeing is dogs getting killed. If you go a lot it will def happen.

We used to have these guys come out and do it quite a bit down at our place but the first time we saw a dog on the heels of a nice buck we stopped. Any chance we get invited to do it on someone else's place down there we go, it is definitely a kick in the arse
