Title: Finally some hawgs!!!
Post by: BLUEBULLS on April 20, 2009, 07:41:43 AM: Well we finally got into some good ones.

the biggest would be a 415-418 typical if he matched
the next biggest is broken but my guesses on his points would put him in the 375-390 range
and the other good one would be right around 350"
the broken one still weighs 12lbs.
time to start looking for matches

my uncle had 2 labs that would go run on the gold course every morning and go find golf balls....dogs would find a 5 gallon bucket of balls every month.......silly animals....

Post by: BLUEBULLS on April 21, 2009, 06:55:41 AM: he is a hound, redbone/bluetick. He never, ever, ever comes off his leash. He's the only one that never wants to head back to the truck and helps me up hills pretty good.
he's good company

Post by: EastWaViking on April 21, 2009, 07:03:14 AM: Great looking dog. I thought it was a Red Bone! We had a Blue Tick growing up, hounds have amazing noses.

Post by: flyguide on May 03, 2009, 07:13:20 AM: How did this one make it to the second page? I guess if we ignore it we'll stop laying awake in bed haunted by visions of a 418" bull! Nice pics, I've looked at them about 20 times. Any chance you can post another couple shots? :drool:
Title: Re: Finally some hawgs!!!
Post by: BLUEBULLS on May 04, 2009, 06:59:57 AM: I have more pictures, I just need to bring the camera to work. We went back and tried to match it up but no luck. I thought i found it when I spotted two big eye guards about 200 yards from where the big one was but it was a different bull, about a 360" 6pt. I'll try to post more tomorrow. by the way flyguide, that's an awesome set you found, great pics too!

Title: Re: Finally some hawgs!!!
Post by: BLUEBULLS on May 11, 2009, 04:14:47 PM: he doesn't get to come off his leash, he comes along for company and excercise. he does pull me uphill pretty good too, the problem is he pulls me downhill just as good.
