David hails from
Victoria, Aust. I met him through Doug Mummery. David travelled up north quite a
few times to hunt with me. As you will see David has caught his share of good
hogs. |

One of the best photos
I have ever seen. A dog owned by David's mate checks out a litter of
suckers. You can train good dogs to ignore small pigs like these, as you
can see. |

55Kgs but some mean
fangs. This boar was caught in heavy lignum in South western NSW. |
|
Blister (a bitch I bred
by a Butters dog). She has some help but has a good grip. This is the
boar above but you can't see the tusks very well. |
|
David and Blister with
a small one again, but a goodee. |
|
Blister and a
Mastiff/Ridgeback with a boar well under control. |
|
Craig in North Qld with
a boar around the 80kg mark. |
|
Leroy in Southern NSW.
This pig tipped the scales just under 300lb. The knife is homemade and
doubles as an axe. Bloody good boar but disappointing in the fang dept. |
|
One of David's mates
getting a good boar under control. The lignum swamp (pictured in the
background) held good numbers of big boars. Taken in South Western NSW. |
|
Blister and friend with
a boar caught while spotlighting. A red cattle dog looks on. |
|
The things you find in
lignum swamps. This old hog was bailed before the artillery
arrives. Sights like these are what you hunt for. |
|
Ken with the end result
for the boar above. This boar was shot after being bailed. Somewhere
between 80kgs and 95kgs. |
|
Robbie with a boar
caught in western Qld. This type of country allows you to see the dogs
catching the pigs. Great to get young dogs started. |
|
A good boar over the
100kg mark caught in South Western Qld. This old boar was one of 40 good
boars caught in a week. |
|
Kibber and Bomber hold
a boar after being stuck. Caught while spotlighting a crop. |
|
Leroy with the results
of a spotlighting run in South Western NSW. |
|
Leroy in South west
Queensland. The area hunted was a lignum swamp over 40 square miles in
area. |
|
Leroy's dogs closing in
after flushing this small pig from the lignum. The area is South
Western New South Wales. |
|
Two Mummery bred dogs
holding a boar caught while spotlighting. |
|
Ian and Charlie. South
West NSW again. Spotlighting or walking after dark is the best way to
catch these large boars. |
|
Ken out after dark in
the fog. Two Mastiff cross dogs Bomber and Spud. |
|
A good weekend haul. |
|
A lot of pigs will head
for water to try and outsmart the dogs. |
|
Leroy and Roger in
South Western Queensland. Dogs are Charlie, Bomber and Max. This photo
was taken on the edge of a lignum swamp that covers 40 square miles. |
