Had a couple of skirmish's with hogs on the big ranch over the years but now they moved in on my place, feeding 12 places and they've found two of them.

I think there's more than enough guys on here to help eradicate a sounder of insurgent swine.

Hopefully they will move on when it dries up Sir, or at least slow down.

Time to harvest a little bacon!

Thankfully, I have never had to deal with them on our place. Even the few on a couple of leases didn't make an impact like some of the THF'rs have had to go through. I think if I suddenly found them on my place, it would be a number 1 priority. When we had a larger place, I definitely would have made it a priority.
No doubt you will find many willing to thin them out for ya though.

If I can get them coming in consistently the call out will be made. There's a worthless doughnut eating cop in Midland that was looking pretty skinny last time I saw him, I'm sure he's got a few boys that are more than willing. I have to be careful though Mrs. B loves killing hogs.

Make a full auto AR and go to war with the pigs, literally.
12 pigs should be done with in a weekend, me thinks.

I thought the same thing, poor fella.
They've been showing up occasionally on the game camera at my little place. Just not often enough to pattern or try trapping them. Little devils. They'll get what's comin' to them in the end.

I have been saying it for 20 years and hope for another 20 years to follow
As a side note, I enjoy shooting them on other people's property

I enjoy shooting pigs. If they aren't around I can't shoot them. Imagine how boring hunting would be if all I had on my lease is deer. I don't think I could handle only hunting 3 months of the year.

Yeah, but your deer hunting would probably be a lot better if you didn't have the hogs around.

That's the way it was for a long time and that's how I think all the great traditions and camaraderie around opening day got started. A lot of things are more fun when you can't get it all the time.

To be honest I'm kind of the same way, I do like hunting hogs.

If it is a serious problem, you could hook up with a helicopter hunting service

Re: It was just a matter of time. - 11/06/15 07:08 PM
well, we haven't had any on our place in Mills county, although there are lots of them within the county...UNTIL...the SOB that owns a VERY small place across the road decided to bring some in for HIS DAY HUNTERS!! got a pic of a boar on the camera a couple weeks ago.
This is the same SOB the GW had to pay a visit to and get him to pull the stands off the fence lines. Now we have a game camera watching his entrance to see if we can actually get pics of him bringing more SH*T in. I really want to shot'em and go put them in front of his gate.

where abouts in mills is this happening and do you happen to know the landowner?
This is as close as I can get.
I updated my equipment for this very purpose. The hogs on the Pitchfork are getting out of control. We don't have the hunters per acre to even come close to keeping up with the killing that needs to be done. My Wilson Combat 308 is ready for the challenge. It will roll them over like a steam roller with the 178 grain Amax.

North of Goldthwaite and yes. We've put out cameras to try and get pics of him actually bringing them in. With the pics it's hard to prove.
