Deer season pig

[Turpentine21]

I'm working on a group of hogs for a guy right now that only show up between 2:00am to 4:00am and even then they are unpredictable. When the camera goes off I go put the sneak on them. This particular group has been trapped, run with dogs, and shot at until they are like ghosts. They can get incredibly smart. I killed a boar a couple days ago that was around 180 lbs. You could smell him from 20 yards away. That kind goes straight to the buzzard pit. I generally shoot them with my ARs in 6.5 Grendel or 6.5 Creedmore with 123 eldm's or SSTs. They both work well on hogs and are very good on deer also.

I can assure you that I have no desire to bring them to Nevada. I have raised pigs and know what damage they can do to crops, ground nesting birds and any young animals that can't get away.
I just want a place to shoot some without having to mortgage my house.

There is a long story behind why hog hunting "got" so expensive.
When hogs first became a problem, landowners would allow almost anybody to "Please come shoot these hogs!".
They gave Bobby Joe permission to hunt.
Then Bobby Joe took Stitch hunting.
Then Stitch showed up with Skeeter and Possum.
The landowner checks his property and finds gates have been left open. His brahma bull is in his hereford pasture.
Skeeter drove through the hay grazer field and knocked down about 20 acres chasing pigs in his Toyota pickup, then ran through a fence.
What Possum thought was a red pig turned out to be a prized hereford heifer. He didn't kill her, but she was so shot up, the landowner had to put her down.
Back at the corral, where they built a bonfire and burned down half an equipment shed, there is probably 4 cases worth of empty beer cans and bottles!
Now Bobby Joe can't understand why the landowner won't allow him to come back!

If you charge to hunt, there is the possibility that any damages incurred by the landowner will be covered with hunting fees.

Soooooo.......now hog hunting is expensive!

Obviously the names were changed to protect the guilty!

Be careful what you wish for when it comes to pigs. Very destructive. Rooted my hay fields up this year. In Texas, we shoot them and drag them off. While deer hunting last year i personally shot fifteen and my grandsons probably also shot that many. They are always good for running a gun check. Again, watch what you wish for. Good hunting everyone.

You didn't have a Skeeter or a Possum in your community when you were growing up?

Not quite as tender as 80 lb choat but if you're hungry enough, one could eat for a while. Young man in the picture killed it with a knife
