I say do both! At the same time!


So I set up a hog trap and started baiting it. Left it propped open so the hogs would get comfortable going into it. Over 2 weeks I didn't have any pictures of hogs in the trap. I went out to do some thermal night hunting and saw these at the trap and decided to just shoot them. Then this happened.

Thanks! I almost don't like taking them all out at once like that. Less hogs to shoot in the future. Hope I'm not hunting myself out of a hobby!

We trap a lot of hogs used to sell them but the price is so low we just pull out the old 22 and thin out the hog population.That was some good shooting Bacon8tor

I think they're like the Blue Bell Ice Cream commercial — They'll make more!
