Enjoy!

There is something classic about how some of those lever actions look. If I were into rifles, I would be looking at some of these lever actions too.

Went pig hunting this afternoon. After several hours of looking, found a medium sounder,
messing around a waterhole. I spotted some about 140 yds off. I made my way in her direction, keeping those trees between us. But, after making up half the distance, I walked up on two young boars about 35 feet away. One was merrily chowing down on some acorns, the other was standing there looking at me, trying to decide whether to charge or run. Then the Windsucker spoke. This little fellow will make fine pork chops! Last edited by Onkel Neal; 02-22-20 at 11:24 AM. Reason: fixed pictures |

Let us know how the meat tastes. I've been thinking of going out to get one myself. Southern Missouri has them moving in to the point where we can shoot them. Dept. of Conservation wants them out too so it's open season (last I checked at least).

Neal, it's so terrible of you to murder helpless animals! You should buy your meat at the store, where no animals are harmed!
But seriously (or not), I read on FaceBook that some idiot actually posted something like that. Extra seriously, I hope the chops are good.

Actually feral pig hunting at least in CA is akin to pest control as depredating feral hogs can cause a lot of damage to croplands and domestic stock.

I'm looking at your gun and thinking to myself "Wyatt Earp, he's still alive"!

As Aktung said, it's essentially pest control.
Quote:
Missouri Dept. of Conservation states that a group of 10 wild hogs can ruin between 20 and 30 acres of land in a night. They also spread diseases. They're not at the hunting level state-wide (contrary to what I originally thought), but I believe certain areas down here will allow some hog hunting. The other pest that needs controlling is Coyotes. If you don't keep your smaller livestock or pets safe at night, you may be missing a few here and there after a while.

Yeah, wild pigs are the only thing I'll shoot (other than deer in season). They are ubiquitous.

$312 for a non resident hunting license to hunt on private land? Well I know what I won't be doing when I go down there.
