A little about
Ian
Colley and Boardogs.
I have lived and
breathed hunting for most of my life, especially pursuing feral
pigs with the aid of dogs and have passed this passion on to my
son, Stephen. The majority of my hunting has been in the New
England area and North Western New South Wales and South West
Queensland. I have also hunted pigs to a lesser extent in
Southern New South Wales, Central Queensland and Cape York.
I currently live in New
South Wales, Australia, but I had to relocate to the coast with
my job, which unfortunately has reduced the opportunities I have
to hunt, hence the creation of Boardogs. I like nothing better
than talking about pig hunting, good dogs and big boars so with
the reduction in hunting I decided to learn how to create a web
site.
Well that was
5 years
ago now and the site has grown from a very basic one of
displaying some of my photos, to a more interactive site through
the addition of a message forum and live chat functionality that
allows hunters from all over the world to discuss and learn more
about their favourite pass time. Hunters can also post their own
photos of successful hunts, their favourite dogs, hunting rigs
etc for all to enjoy and discuss online. A lot of members have
teamed up with each other for hunts and some strong friendships
have been created via Boardogs.
Boardogs, hopefully will
continue to grow and be enjoyed by the thousands of hunters that
visit each week, learning from fellow visitors or offering
advice from personal experiences for the novice and not so
novice hunters. I am the first to admit I have learnt a lot from
the few brief years the site has been up and running and
I have been fortunate to have met some great people.
Enjoy your visit to
Boardogs.
