We have a bunch of them but kill maybe 1-2 a year in the 180-220lbs range. Im sure this one will go towards the higher range.
My buddy moved his protein feeder away from his feed pen more into a sanctuary area next to a creek to see if he would notice any difference in activity. Well, this pig has decided to make it home. the pic caught my eye as the feeder is on cinder blocks and he’s standing flat footed.. thought I’d share.


A couple doe for reference.

At first I thought you were going to show us a pic of the Hildebeast when she was campaigning in your area! That is a big un, and as mentioned by others, he needs a hot lead injection as soon as you can set it up!!

That’s a big pig in any area. Better kill him before your feeder is empty or destroyed.

That’s a BIG pig. I hope you kill him. I’d like to know if he’s been cut.

BB gun to the tail ought to do him in. At least 2 pumps!

That’s even more impressive then. Pictures can always be deceiving, but he’s thick down to the elbow. I hope you get him. Good luck

I've shot quite a few 200+
and last year I dropped a 340 on my land

from my experience of judging them on cam->shot->scale

I say what you have there is a 300 - 300+

how do I arrive at that ?
the sag on the elbow area

There's a pattern of tight-sag from 100-200-300

you have a big visitor, the trick is to keep him coming
at the right time for you to put a well placed bullet
- to the neck


good luck

and make sure you WEIGH him
