Off season hog hunting contest

[gameflogger]

Anyone up for an off season Hog hunting contest? I will donate a brand new Badlands sprint pack (approach camo) with tags still on to the winner. (Honor system)
Rules are:
1. Hog has to be killed from a saddle.
2. Free range hogs only (no high fence ranches)
3. Weight trumps tusks. Must show weight on a scale.
4. Must have saddle hanging from pig on the scale in the picture.
5. Meat must not go to waste!

Contest ends August 15th

We cannot hunt pigs in tn! That sucks but it sounds supper fun!


See you in a tree, Ricky

In Texas there are so many they just passed a law that we can hunt them without a hunting license.

 

[Exhumis]

RRRAAAWWRRRR no fair! There are no hogs where I live!! I would be down in a second. Alas, I shall watch from afar.

 

[gameflogger]

Yeah, but I watch all of these guys post pictures of huge whitetails, where I hunt in Texas the deer are dinkers compared to the northern slobs!

 

[SnakeEater]

I’m in, building some heavier high foc arrows that I can hopefully test out on some Louisiana hogs too!

 

[Nutterbuster]

I would be in, but I'm not weighing one. I clean almost everything where it falls, and have never weighed a deer or hog unless required by law at a check-in station.

Sounds like a blast though. I found some local public that holds them and allows bowhunting year round.

If they're stuck in a trap and then I'll climb up in the tree next to them and shoot him out of the saddle does that count?

 

[Matki15]

I’m in, getting my night vision sighted in tomorrow, once March comes I’ll be after them

 

[Matki15]

Doesn’t count for the competition since I wasn’t in a saddle but still a fun hunt. 180 pounds on the dot

 

[gameflogger]

Thats a slob!!!!

 

[Matki15]

Thats a slob!!!!

For our area he’s about average. Uncle got this one tonight. 265 pounds

 

[gameflogger]

Wow!!! You guys have some bruisers where y’all are at!

Biggest one killed on our lease weighed 307, and every year we typically kill 2 or 3 in the 250-275 range. The lease that borders ours has snared a few that went between 325-350

307# is a stud!!! I always think it is funny when I see pictures of pigs and people say that they weigh 500#. I know that they exist, but what most people call a 300# pig actually weigh about 180#. The scales dont lie. The biggest we have killed on our place was 281#. The next biggest was 273#. We hunt in east TX. My father in law and I usually bet on the weight before we hang them. The Farthest from the actual weight has to clean it!

Our big ones don’t usually roll in until may or June

I have seen 900 pound domestic boars used in an AI stud. Yes it was weighed. We have almost no wild pigs in Ontario.
I would have to kill one in the barn.

I have seen some enormous domestic pigs, but they just dont get that big in the wild.

My buddie’s cousin killed this one in Brownwood TX. Says it bottomed out a 500# scale
