"Marranos Muertos" Results
On April 9th, 30 teams of up to 4 members per team took to the field with packs of dogs and knives in hand. The "Marranos Muertos" Hog Dog Challenge was underway. The weekend long contest gave over 100 hog hunters (with the use of dogs) a chance to compete for prize money and four custom made belt buckles. The winners are determined on the combined weight of the four largest wild hogs. The teams were allowed to hunt anywhere in the state of Texas. Teams hunted as far away as Navasota, Abilene, the Rio Grande Valley and everywhere in between. Here are the results from this years contest:
