@KO How big are these hogs?
Click to expand...

it was a monster about 480 pounds
some get up to 600 though

usually the normal size one you will see and shoot (since you pay by the pound most times) will be 250-300
 
damn... I wasn't thinking of animals that big. I'm used to javallinas around here that probably don't break 50-75 pounds tops...
What do you mean you pay per pound?

You hunt them with a bow? I always figured you were a rifle shooter.

primarily I do hunt with a rifle but I try to stay lethal with all forms of hunting

if I don't get paid I might have to bow hunt to put some food on the table

You'd have enough bacon to last for a week!

Damn, that's odd. I thought once you bought a license, whatever you got was yours to do with. I didn't realize there would be a cost per pound.

yeah um those are piglets, they taste great but I wouldn't take my picture with them


the cost is whatever the land owner says
 
Do you pay for the whole animal or is that after you field dress it?
 
whole animal, they cash in
 
its a bit gamey but with proper prep it doesn't bother me but maybe im just used to it

that's why you are our hero
 
A few deer seasons ago conservation told everyone to shoot any and all hogs on sight and leave them on the side of the road. Personally, I didn't see any but by the end of opening weekend there were probably 30 killed. I felt pretty bad about it. I really hate to see any animal killed but especially if it's not going to be used, just thrown away like a piece of trash.
 
That monster pig that Eq posted a link to looks fake as hell and the story is a bit iffy as well.
