Texas Boar Hounds

Quick and Fun Hunt Another pesky rooter down last night for a loyal client. Ryan’s story below: “Dylan, Alex, and I loaded up the dogs in the buggy, and hauled it to one of the spots earlier last night. It was dark. So dark it seemed that even bright headlamps and even brighter buggy lights didn’t seem to penetrate it. Thankfully it wasn’t cold, though, and very little wind. Ingredients to what would be the start of a fun and eventful evening. We made it through the gates and dropped the 3 dogs I brought with us; TBH’s Ellie May; a new younger gyp I have from our South TX TBH crew named Harley; and good ol lil NML’s Josey for catching power. The girls didn’t disappoint… Ellie May took right to it, as usual, with Harley right instep behind her. Both girls already out 150+ yards, within minutes of having pads on the ground. Alex and I followed them in with our green lights on for a moment, then killed the lights in hopes of not busting anything. Dylan stayed in the buggy with the lights off back by the gate, on stand by with the 2-way, conveniently having “forgotten” his boots at the house. After about 5 mins of the girls quickly working the area in the bottoms of a cutaway, Ellie May sounds off and starts singing to one. Very shortly after, Harley chimes in with her. Sent Josey to seal the deal, and the bay broke before she could get there. Thankfully the girls didn’t let it get too far, some 30-40 yards, before they came bayed again. Josey got there, became an earring, and that was that, as “they” say, whoever “they” is… We pulled the hog out, loaded dogs, forgot to take pics somehow, and called it night. It was a really fun and easy going hunt. Got wet, got dirty, and got into the woods. Any day hunting is better than a day at work. #DWMSHNSMF” God bless and hog on! #TexasBoarHounds #TryHardKennels #SouthernCrossCutGear #NoMansLandPerformanceBulldogs

Our first run last night at Earls. Been a blast so far, but totally different world from the woods we’re used to being involved with, but awesome none the less. TBH’s Sadie and TBH’s Ellie May on their first time in the bay pen. Good ol woods dogs sitting back and signing to em. 😎 #UncleEarls #TuskersMagazine #TexasBoarHounds #WoodsDog #HomeBred

03/13/2022 - Another fun filled hunt: Part of the crew went out to an old clients spot and dropped Clyde, Zip, and Ellie May on the ground. They lined the first pig out pretty quickly, caught out, catch dogs sealed the deal, with what seemed to be a pretty quick and easy hunt, we headed out. We left Ellie May on the ground to try and roll over onto the group again. She ended up baying up a decent boar hog on the water’s edge. We sent in NML’s Josey and TBH’s Emma Lue to seal the deal, caught hog! Got him dispatched, and we headed out and called it a day. Great dog work! Happy clients! Happy TBH! God bless and hog on! #Amerigo #TexasBoarHounds #SouthernCrossCutGear #NoMansLandPerformanceBulldogs #TryHardKennels

02/25/2022 - Dallas’s bday hunt: It was another quick and easy hunt last night for TBH. Almost starting to get a bit spoiled. Have to enjoy the fun and easy ones while they last because you know some hard ones are soon to follow. 😎 Dallas, Dave, Hunter, and I loaded up a few dogs, more than we normally do, but you’ll have that from time to time. We pulled into the client’s spot right before 10, and turned the group of cur dogs loose. Wanted to have a few more paws on the ground in case we found the group that’s been moving through. After the typical 5 mins of running around having a pissing match, the dogs got to work. It took them about 10 minutes to run through to the bottom of the field and strike this younger boar hog. He was most likely just hanging out under the feeder down in the cutaway by the creek. We were probably 200 yards out at the time, heard the fight ensue with the cur dogs, so away the white dogs went. Moving into what was surely now caught hog, it sounded much bigger that it ended up being. By the sounds of this hog’s grunts, I think we all expected something much larger, but his smell backed up his grunt. Once all the dogs piled on him he was done, and went to squealing pretty quick. Hunter got in and put the Bowie to him, and almost before it began it was now over. Tradition means cracking a cold one after a successful hunt, especially on a bday and even in the lightly-snowing freezing rain. We loaded the boar up to get him out of the bottoms, enjoyed a brew and some chit talking, then called it a night. All in all, a short successful hunt, happy clients, happy bday boy, and a happy young buck with another kill under his belt. TBH fully supports keeping the youth off the streets and in the woods! Remember, you never know what’s gona happen when you turn those dogs loose. God bless and hog on! #Amerigo #TexasBoarHounds #NoMansLandPerformanceBulldogs #SouthernCrossCutGear #WildBoarUSA

The South Texas TBH crew getting it done a couple weekends back with a good one. TBH’s Iceman showing that experience! Great video Brother Aaron! TBH’s Iceman is out of UDR’s Cotton (RIP) x TBH’s PJ (RIP). #Amerigo #TexasBoarHounds #SouthernCrossCutGear

Young boar hog from last night. Set the pistol down to try and get in quick to flip it. After I had set it down, I realized Ellie May had already gotten after him a bit, so he got the Bowie. #Amerigo #TexasBoarHounds #SouthernCrossCutGear

1/22/2022: First hunt of the year! Got ‘em coach! #Amerigo #TexasBoarHounds #SouthernCrossCutGear #WildBoarUSA

1/22/2022: First hunt of the year! Sound up! The rumble of a sounder is one of the most unique noises in the world, and something you’ll never forget after hearing it for the first time, much less running to it. Normally we wouldn’t shoot going into a bay, but a boar came out and rushed us… so he caught a few bullets. 😎 #Amerigo #TexasBoarHounds
