Think they opened the WMA ta hog archery year round 3ta4 years ago. May they have the squirrel-hog hunts, shotgun, rimfire, & muzzleloader.
Went several times, earlt morning hunts. Wasnt realy woeth effort for hogs, hotter the temps-faster need ta get on ice.
Archery deer-hog hunts hunted closer to the parking areas, warmer weather, hog any legal meens, cooler months, is when did me
en & chillen hunts. Ya could put up enought ta last threw warmer months.
Back strap steaks, some from hind quarters, lots of sausage, & even did some hog jerkey.
We did our own prossesing, cut back on cost.
Only once took hog ta butcher, took couple at same time, did smaller one & sent bigger one ta butcher.
Still had place ta hunt S of house were haddeer foodplots & corn feeders by creek. Lot easier & quicker ta get on ice.
OSBWMA was best kept secret, dont see any one posting. Be the first ta say, i'm not that great of hunter. Yet could keep the freezer full.
Seen the number in hogs drop, first the AK's then AR's, & found many that werent recovered, they wanted hogs gone. Yet it brings hunters in. Used my AR carried 10 rnd mag with 4ta5 rounds. Cheep 55gr fmj or hp, it was light weight, easy ta manuvor in the thick switch cain, tall grass & palmedo plants, kept my shots close range, small bullet, not best blood trails, most goes into body cavety. Usualy fast action, heart llung bigger target, had great luck, only one not recovered.
Ya, miss me hog hunts at OSBWMA.
see very few reports of any one hunting it, as a lease, they had a waiting list ta get on it. The flooding pushes the hogs out ta surounding privet land owners, they follow the creeks, & the pressure has pushed em ta were had my set up. Had pics of up ta 9-10 moven threw on cams. The neighbors dogs kept em moving.
