Hogs are different everywhere. I haven’t seen a hog in daylight where I hunt in person or on camera in well over a month

We have been killing them on our place during the day, mornings and evenings. Killed 16 so far and none have been after dark. Don't even include all the misses either!!!

Prior to this last week, I hadn't seen a hog during daylight hours for over a year around the Mason/Brady area. Don't know what's changed, but it may be that the drought is causing some behavioral changes in the bristly beasties.

Only kill hogs during daylight. Hundreds. Have only killed a few at night with a green light.


Just like Jesus, sometimes you gotta kill some hogs.

I routinely see pigs on my place from 10.30 to 1 pm especially on a waxing moon to full.

I've been getting pics of hogs at feeders anywhere from 10am up to 4pm and all hours in between. Caught a sounder at my feeder last week @ 6pm which is an hour before my feeder goes off.


That's my $.02. Here's you're change!!

I get them year around during the daytime until the bullet start flying.


Without a sense of urgency, nothing ever happens.

On the place nth of town I'm seeing them every day. I go to feed a little after lunch and they're all bunched up under the cedars. Funny thing is there's a deep draw with a spring within 100 yards of them and I never see them there. It's obvious they've been in there often but never during the day.


Yes! A Weatherby does kill them deader.

Where is that report from? We don't see them during the day but we hunt them heavily. If you're in an area that isn't hunted very heavily, then yeah you might see them more during the day.

I've had pics of them in the day time, but mostly night. Depends if the they need to scratch that itch on a tree or not. texas

Not seeing any at day - in fact pretty much only between 1:30 - 5:30 AM and only on nights when I am not hunting them (and I only hunt on nights where the wind is favorable to our stand locations - they must know!!). smile
