new hog pen around feeder - 12/12/17 01:29 PM
My wife and I just bought a new piece of property in east Texas. We have always hunted out west and had a few hogs but nothing like what we have now. Our feeders have not arrived yet and so I just poured out some corn on the ground to see what would show up. We had a couple of nice deer that first night but then the hogs started showing up in numbers that made me have to take off my shoes to count. They ran the deer off and have even been sleeping on the corn to keep everything else away. We spent last weekend building this pen and will set our feeder in the middle. We have never done this before and built a round pen. It took 10 hog panels that are 16 feet long and 34 inches high alone with 20 T-posts. So, we will see what happens. I think I will spend more time this first year killing hogs than hunting deer.
