Ronnie,
I freely admit to being in the dark on a lot of subjects, but just as freely admit I'm willing to learn from (just about) anyone. I was sure anxious to learn this specific technique.
If I remember correctly, you and I have a little trip scheduled next week not far from Mr. Tripp's home. Mayhaps he would be willing to tag along and demonstrate. ScottD

Howdy to all my porker plagued pals,
Sorry, hadn't read this particular thread in a while and was unaware of the turn it had taken.
Most hogs I've taken have been pretty easy -- via trap and bait known as "hog mash" (which I'd be more than happy to teach any of you to make), or over a feeder, and occasionally the errant boar wandering within range.
It's been several years, but I did take two hogs (separate occasions)while using a JS piglet distress (possibly not exact name). ]
No real trick to it -- pretty much called like I call coyote or fox.
I hunt in the thick brush of south central and South Texas -- mesquite and live oak, prickly pear. Hogs tend to be found in pockets...either the land has few, or tons of hogs. There never seems to be any middle ground.
Anyhow, this thread has given me a bit of inspiration to give it another try. Guess that's the only way to prove or disprove dumb luck!
Catch you outdoors,

Thanks for the response tripp. After several years of proving to myself I have no skills for calling hogs. I have been counting on dumb luck to intervene.
I was hoping you would divulge some kind of secret to hog calling. I will just continue to root around with my call hoping one will won't to occupy the same space I am in.

P.S. The invite for the airboat ride with a Chinese girl still stands.

Welcome to the New Huntmasters, 2dogs. Glad to have you on board. Looks like you already know Dennis? Probably a neighbor?
Good hunting. LB

Thanks for the welcome, guys.
Hmmm don't know if I know Greenside or not? Probably do though...I haven't hunted a fox in many moons, just coyote. I go by "Kirby" on Predater Masters & "2dogs" on Iowa Outdoors.
Good site by the way.

Hi Kirby, I recognize you from PM. Is 2dogs the first half of your name? I seem to remember an old joke?

Hey, Rich...LOL! Yep that's a good one for sure. I've never laughed so hard, until I heard that one.
Uh...yah. First half, only. [ May 03, 2005, 07:37 AM: Message edited by: 2dogs ]
