I shoot every one I see. First thing I do every Saturday when I show up to work at the ranch is hop on the gator, grab a 270, a shotgun, and a pistol, and my friend does the same while riding along with me....
We drive the fences/cross fences over 800 acres and check for holes in the fence and pigs. We usually kill 2-6 in the hour it takes to drive the fences. We use the 270 for the long shots, and when we see a big group, we run buckshot in the shotguns and try to get in close....knock down as many as possible, then come back for the kill.
Last weekend we dropped a 400+lb sow with about 12 piglets on her. We got 4 piglets with the sow that went the wrong direction....the other 8 got away...along with the boar. Without their momma, the coyotes will make quick work of the piglets. We always aim for the sow over the boar.
Hello Marskmu,
My Dad, my brother, and I are looking to go hog hunting this winter/spring. Sounds like you have hog problems, so would you be interested in us coming down for a few days and killing some of your hogs?
Let me know if you do!
Thanks,
David
We take the carcasses and drag them down to where the alligators are grouped up on the shoreline, and toss em over to the gators. 4 hours later there isnt a body to be seen, but there are alot of happy gators.
I shoot group after group after group, and it does not impact anything. The next weekend another group replaces the one I obliterated the weekend before. All you can do is keep on killing em. I keep a feeder full of corn just to make picking them off easier for us. We keep the area around the feeder mowed down for about 300 yards in every direction. Makes for easy targets.
