Bushing Boar


Recommended Posts

Had a great time in Hungary recently, a few days digging, a few days driven hunting, in the beating line on the boar drives. Unlacedgecko, put together a great article about it if you want a more detailed read, but heres a few pics of some of the dogs that were out bushing boar to guns and baying up/catching any wounded.

 

This is a Visla x Jagd terrier. Not pictured is a daughter out of this bitch, the sire was some street mongrel, but the younger one was a double of its mother, only in a chocolate brown instead of black.This bitch liked to bay a boar up, was short to medium range, and was a rather loose bay dog, keeping a good distance of her boar.

The red deer are bigger than the highland ones Im used too   The hills are all managed hardwoods. For timber and driven shooting, it seems a good system, though very long-term turnover.   Some

Teckel / Jagd terrier cross, perhaps... the owner wasnt too sure. I didnt see this one in action. Most of the terrier and teckel's were yappy, driving dogs. Hunting away not too far in front. Plenty of boar were put up and hunted a short way. They didnt stick to the boar for very long.

ULgecko's 'Clyde'. Very keen dog, will turn a paw to most wildlife. At one point he hunted a herd of red hinds a kilometer back over. He was in the action as we caught a marten (as was the pointer and about 8 terriers lol)

Some areas of re-gen were very dense, you were crawling along boar tracks hoping not to have one heading your way haha

She will generally hunt close in, within 100 yards, sometimes a bit more in woodland, but she 'checks in' regularly, and will go out to 2 km, when on the trail of game, I usually run her with a gps system. Im pleased with her general skills, bird work, retrieve, deer work, and also I hunt some rabbit and hare with her. I have a hope that with a bit more work, she will soon learn how to handle a nasty male boar.

 

I was a bit gutted that the first boar she found gave her a hiding, but she seemed to take it ok, and was keen to get back at them, I held her back on the lead for a bit, but then ULGecko's dogs had a boar caught and the boar had chased ULG, I let her go and join in the catch, and though keen to help, she had reverted into a baying style, which suits me. Her leg is now fully healed, and she is raring to go again, hopefully get her some action over the coming week.

 

This is the one that the pack caught.

Looks like fun mate, nice photos.

 

We bushed out a tusker today, was a little emotional :laugh:

Funny enough when we went to aber on thursday,missus remarked she couldn't understand how the forest of dean boar hadn't spread to Monmouth side of the wye.

 

I know one was seen swimming the wye,and they were up round the narth when they were first released.

F of D Redneck... Yeah the visla cross did look a lot like a small doberman for sure. I'll see if I took one of the daughter.

 

Cheers for the comments folks, I still need to work on my camera skills lol missed pretty much all the action.

 

Sounds like you lads have a few about, if you ever fancy a few extra helpers, for 'flushing to the gun' etc... give us a call.

You would be surprised how far they have spread,.... There's a farm in walking distance from me having some trouble off them lol
