Hog Dodging!

Well my easter went just splended. Rained, I got in an accident...

For those who thought it was cruel to hunt hogs, Lemmi tell ya what happened.

Driving home Saturday evening around 10 pm, I was driving about 75 (yeah, a bit fast but it was an open hwy with no one on it) Anyhow, about (and I'm just guessing here didn't have time to count) about 200 hogs ran out infront of me, from fence line to fence line they were solid and about 5 abrest! I took out about 12 of them all at once (at least thats what was laying on the road, and there were more in the ditch, but I wasn't getting out to count) My front end is all messed up on my truck.
And ya know where they were headed? The freshly planted rice fields. Coming from the cornfields......

That many hogs can completely ruin 100 acres of crops in one night. Luckily none of us were hurt and I was able to control my truck, but it just goes to show you how bad they are and how much money they were fixing to cost alot of farmers. Not to mention your food supply.

 

Do you participate in hog hunting? Seriously the hunting is not cruel... Even training isn't cruel (done correctly etc...) but I do aggree that contests for hog catching isn't probably the best think one can do to keep the practice legal and to keep from making it look worse to many folks than it already does.

There is a real need for hog hunting out there (WITH DOGS)... Great story...BTW

 

Oh Sam. If it would happen to anyone, it would definately be you. Never a dull moment in your family it seems. I hope you enjoyed dinner at least. Glad to hear no one was seriously injured.

Those damn hogs!!

 

Oh yeah, we ate WAY tooo much. Needless to say, the dogs, welll they'll be getting extras in their suppers!
The sad thing is I had to bake the HAM! LOL, totally ironic!!!!!
