[QUOTE="westexhunt, post: 2125182, member: 71281"] As a rancher/landowner in Texas with a hog problem I will offer a little info. Hogs are smarter than you. I don’t intend this as an insult it’s just that they have lived generations in the area and you got here a few minutes ago. They don’t pattern like any other game animals. They are fun and easy to hunt for a few days/nights then they move and those same hogs won’t come back for 30+ days. I have box traps, a cell gate trap, thermals and we have helicopter hunted them. I still have hogs but, not near as bad as some, they are hard to find and harder to kill. They mix with the cows on open pasture, split up when pressured (air or ground). Started out hunting them with dogs, horseback 25+ yrs ago (that’s a young mans sport). Its just not effective use of ones time to take new hunters out hog hunting. Shots are often offhand, unknown distance at multiple running targets. [/QUOTE]
