I remember taking my first hog. It was night with LED illumination. No doubt he was 125 lbs. The crazy thing about hunting in TX is how much the hogs shrink when you go to drag them from the feeder. You guessed it. By the time I got to the feeder he shrunk down to 60 lbs. Well..... maybe 50 lbs. But my guess on the hog in question is 250 lbs. And you know I'm a great guesser. 
"Group think" is not thinking. It is the lack of independent thought. It is a cancer of the mind.

Ground shrinkage with hogs is worse than with WT deer

Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

Just hang it from a scale and you can get the exact weight!

The secret to a long life is to try not to shorten it.
