Just got in from
takinng the 2 stags and Mason out to a peanut field and there was a couple of hogs in the field. We led the dogs out to about 75 yds of the pig and hit him with a spotlight and let the dogs go. Heyena caught him first and then Lucy, a dog on each ear. We hobbled him to help with expenses.I held Mason back because I thought maybe the other pig might run by me and I could put Mason on him but he didn't come close enough. Didn't get a good picture of his teeth but they were 3". This makes the 4 th large boar since last Thursday we have caught in this same field. They are putting up a net wire fence around the field so I am going every other night with the catch dogs until they get the fence up. This is the only place I can find any hogs.

Very interesting and any idea of his weight?
Also, do you kill him, or is the packer an abattoir of sorts where they kill him?
