Sorry guys, my picture server is down today because I exceeded the storage capacity [Big Grin] [Mad] . Tomorrow it will be ok and you will be able to see what frog-torturers are able to do between 25 guns, and a half-day of battue [Wink] . That morning, got myself a pig during the first drive, and a roe during the second [Big Grin] .

Olaf, I shot him in '97 on invitation to a Royal drive hunt (representation is part of my job [Big Grin] ). I hit him 3 x, running at 60 m, with my Blaser .300 Win before he went down. Actually, the 1st. round would have sufficed as he went on his knees, then got up and stumbled another 15 m. However I had seen the "white" shining and kept shooting until he agreed to stay down. I was surprised and expected more than the 85 kg, dressed weight, for, standing, he looked very impressive (high at the shoulder and long bodied but rather slender). There's no suppletive feeding on the King's preserve, so boars aren't fat. He missed C.I.C. bronze by 2 points.

well montero,
i like drive hunts with the dogs ( i think you call it monteria?) and do that since 10 years ..
and step some of pigs.. but at this one i be really scared stiff .and the two neighbor-hunters tell this story on every drive hunt and if you come up here they can tell you this much better than i can.. but one thing is sure.. i hope it never happen again

On the Pic you see my dog after a Boar attack.. cutten 27 times within 5 minutes 50 m away from my stand.. and you can not shoot because you endanger the dog..so the only way to support the dog ( and save his life) was to use the knife on a 3 year old boar in very good shape and condition. On The pic are the good sides of the dog after the attack.

What an adventure, is your best friend alright?

I knew boar could be nasty, but not all that. You killed the boar with a knife? Is this some type of sword you are carrying [Big Grin] [Big Grin]

Which is the most common dog for driven hunts on boar, fallow, red deer and roe in Deutchland.

Hi johan,
yes he is all right.. in the drive hunt season he goes three or four times to the vet, but this was the one of the hardest woundings he got.

I use a kind of bowie Knife but i order another typ for this year.

For drive hunts we use Terrier ( Deutsche jagd terrier, Jack Russell , Parson jack Russel, Deutsch Wachtel, Kopov and and other typ of "Bracke"..

Olaf,

NICE PIG and I'm glad your dog is OK. You should put down the knife and try something a friend of mine in Louisiana regularly does. He and his buddys bay the hogs up with dogs and then one guy reaches down and pulls out the rear legs then ties them together with zip ties or handcuffs. The process is then repeated with the front legs and the hog goes home ALIVE [Big Grin]

Olaf,
when I said Olaf, the famous matador I was not being sarcastic and pleas take it as a compliment.
when you speak of killing a wild boar with a knife and the help of dogs I know what you are talking about.
I killed my first wild schwein like that when I was fourteen, and my son killed his first one in the same way last year, whe he was still eleven.
it is a very common practice in Spain, therefore I never doubted it could be done.
I have lost counts of the many dogs I have sewn myself and carried on my back to the car and to the vet. And many times they did not make it.
Only last year a wounded keiler stopped in a very thick bush to fight the dogs, with his back against a boulder. He killed 4 dogs, injured the other 10 or 12, chased one of us up an oak tree and was never seen again.
It was late in the evening when we were back to the truck, a serious look in our faces, and our clothes soaked up with blood from the dogs.
montero.

Alsatians...
The dog everyboby else calls a German shepperd, is called an Alsatian in the UK...Maybe "German" is a dirty word over there.

Well Bobby, on my shores both names are used, according to the dog's robe. Shorter gray hair = German Shepherd. Black and tan long hair = Alsatian. Same race but both types are bred apart, according to the market's demand.

Great picture of the game bag.

Well done to you and your mates on your days hunt.

Bobby

The British "re-named" the German Shepherd during WW1 or WW2 to "Alsation" along with a lot of other things. Most parts of the Commonwealth use German Shepherd again in these times which is the proper name in my opinion.

My fathers neigbour have a knife that looked like a sword. "it is used in Europe to finish off wounded animals" [Eek!] [Eek!] Is this one of thoose you use? Don't be shy, show us [Big Grin]

There should be a market for kevlars for doggies with such mean boars in the forrests

Cheers

I'll try and scan a picture of mine tomorrow.
It is pointed, with cutting edges on both sides.
It is not very long but it is very wide.
The reason is that you need a wide cut to make sure you cut either the heart or some major blood vessel, but you do not need to have the knife protruding out the opposite shoulder.

In this web you'll find all the model used in Spain to be a Matador , not for me just once a dead boar awake and try to attack , the dogs don't arrive and I preferto put a 7 mm bullet in the neck instead to use my knife .

Thanks for the link. I saw some spanish hunting clothes in a rater stiff material, not ideal for stalking on the site [Big Grin] [Big Grin]

I agree with you, bullets are better than knifes when the dogs are not around.

The knife my fathers neighbour had looked like a roman Gladius (short sword/dagger about 30-35 cm long blande) I guess you will upgrade the choice of knife when you know what the pigs can do.

Cheers

Hi Johan,

looks it like that?
http://www.blankwaffen-ulrich.de/Hirschfanger_Sabel/hirschfanger_sabel.html

Yes, I look like the hirschf�nger but were double edge and a bit wider.
I think I have to get one of these big knifes since the population of Schwartzwild is growing in Sweden.

I see more German jagdterrier for every year. I have a friend who bought three german jagdterrier a year ago. The all have german names [Big Grin]
