Crystal- You list your location as "Austin", so I am not surprised by your response. Look dude, I was simply giving my opinion that the guy is a "real winner". You may be related to him for all I know. But he has a reputation that makes him who he is! My comments were meant to go farther, in detail, but figured the common folk around here would understand. I mean he made it sound like he was going to a battle with a monster. PLEASE!!!!!! It's a 100# pig that he used tie straps on because he said it was too big to tie - whatever! You live in country where you can run one big RCD and have success. We can't over here, why because of terrain/cover that we can not get through. On antoher part of the show he cast his dog on a group of hogs out in the open with the spotlights on them. "Yippee" - he can sight cast a dog into a group of hogs at 50 yards! - so can my wife's lap dog! If he was a real "removal specialist" he would have used every legal means of clearing the hogs out. Shoot em' with the spot light, then run the dogs to pick up what you can't. You know as well as I do you can kill them in Texas all night long w/ spotlights and will do more damage to the herd than one dog.
Now I'm getting started - what I am saying is the show was made for TV and not a true representation of what the problems are for the real world. Parts of it were staged and you can't tell me otherwise. I mean come on, lets make sure she gets her pretty pink knife with the little glitter stones on the glitter belt before the hunt! They are a joke, he is a joke, and he wants to be picked up by the Outdoor Channel so bad he's hoping this gets him some recognition. If I lived in that country I would love a RCD, and they do work, but he is not my favorite person because I do not like people like him.
As some other people on here would put it - he is a "poser"!!!! that has sold one too many dogs. Next time I go out in the woods, I will make sure to starch my shirt, make sure all my hunting buddies have their names monogramed on theirs, and dress my wife up like she is going to the club before cutting loose! Until then, put up or shut up - I got my hogs in the freezer - and we didn't strike them in open mesquite country!
