It was indeed. I wouldn’t mind a go on some of your Ferals. Need myself an invite  

They are getting out of hand here atm, the more hunters the better. I used to hunt the pine plantations in the mountains of NSW but if you want number go to the gulf country, they reckon there are ten million odd up there.

How feasible would it be to come over and hook up with some decent folk and have a good rattle around ?

Plenty collies are tough enough to move stubborn beef pal

They mainly use big type kelpies on the semi wild cattle here but I've never seen one grab the nose like a good cattle dog.

If you can find a pig hunter who isn't a criminal, lol. No there are some decent  blokes into the pigs.

I know couple lads who went to oz for cattle work an come back with pointer x pits an they got added to a few dogs local after it

That takes me back, I remember a neighbor with what he called pointer bulldogs 50 years ago when only a few people caught pigs with dogs here.

I've been to Australia, and NZ, quite a few times, family and friends in both.

One time I just put a post up on Ozziedoggers forum asking if any one would mind taking an old Pom out hunting when I was down there.

I got loads of offers and spent three month on my next trip taking up as many of those offers as I could.

I did some stuff with the running dog lads, the Terrier men, even got an invite for a days hunting and a BBQ with the Barwon Fox Pack.

Without exception, they were all great people, who showed as much interest in how we hunt as I did in their hunting.

As long as your not a liability or a bullshitter they make you most welcome

Cheers.

When I have a run out with some one for the first time, I tell them; "if I'm doing something I shouldn't be doing, tell me ! If I'm not doing something I should be doing, tell me ! "

Its only common curtesy when on an invite.

Cheers.

So you're saying pigs feel the pain when a dog gets a ear hold?

And of course it helps prevent the pig from getting a hold on the dog but my point remains.

A subdued pig isn't giving the dog proper stick, hence why you don't need a deep game dog.

Love the fact that, as someone in England who has never caught a pig, you feel like you can tell a bloke in oz, who has, how its done.

There's confidence for you
