That was supposed to say “I’m in”
I believe all you have to do is check in to that area and have a shotgun since its a shotgun area
There are lots of pigs near camp. Lots. Pigs move a lot so the key is finding fresh sign and camping out, or covering ground until you bump into them. Both tactics will work. All of my pig kills have been while deer hunting from a saddle. I've passed more than I've shot. I've killed maybe 8-10 in 3 years (2 years really because I didn't hunt fort stewart that much this year) and passed 10-15 more. Usually because I didn't want the hassle of dragging them out.
you can walk right from camp - last year a guy rode his Quiet Kat into it but it's close enough to walk
which is funny - Dan and I were into pigs in the archery sections last year 2 hunts in a row by following sign. Got within 20 yards twice before it went south. We found a huge wallow and tons of fresh sign and just kept at it until we crossed paths with them. Dan promises to bring his release this year
Really? That's curious. Most of mine have been killed on stalks.
Sweet.

That's usually my plan. Find a long transition between swamp and woods. They'll either be just inside the thick stuff, or just outside. Gotta have some wind, 'cause you're gonna reek of DEET and sweat. Move slow, but cover ground. A sounder with piglets or shoats is practically deaf and blind compared to a deer. You can just put a tree in between and slow-walk right up on 'em.
