[QUOTE="Mr. Magoo, post: 2675254, member: 124360"] I've never been hog hunting but have been itching to get out and blast some pork flavored self propelled plows for a while. I've been doing alot of reading as to best calibers, bullets etc but still have a few other questions. 1)I don't see people talking much about places to hunt for free. Funds for me are more limited for recreation right now so I have to keep it cheap. Are there oppotunities to get with ranches who dont charge a fee? I know it takes a while to build trust when hunting on someone else's land and there's always a liability issue so I get the need to charge, but it seems some places need all the help they can get. The other option is public land but if it's anything like crowded colorado, sharing the area with a bunch of hog hunters you dont know doesn't sound too appealing due to my phobia of intamacy with speeding projectiles. 2)Is night hunting necessary for success? Dropping 4k on reliable NV or thermal optics isn't in the cards for aforementioned reasons but I sure don't see alot of daytime blubber blasting. 3)is the meat worth harvesting? Like say a young sow- or is the taste, piggy filth, or chance of disease/ just not worth it? I'm well on my way to filling up the freezers this year but a few hundred pounds of pork would be nice. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
