2022 Hog Count

Looks like 2021 ended up with around 1919 pigs reported.

Lets boost those numbers for 2022, I may head out this afternoon and try and find one.

Good luck out there!

3. Kimble County

Just shot one w my 556, sob got to the river and I lost it in the brush

1 from Eastland county

We got a duplicate thread going. Yours is all caps; procraft started an earlier one, a little ways further down.

I threw .30-30 lead at two, way before dawn, but couldn't confirm hits. At least maybe they won't dominate that feeder for a little while. I have to up my game by a lot in 2022. I'm about ready to buy the whole cell phone, big trap gate thingy corral. I'm currently losing this battle badly.

Sorry... I didn't see procraft's thread

The reason it was in all caps is because I was creating a thread like BigPig's from last year sorry if you thought I was yelling

+ 1 from Eastland county = 4

+1 Jack county = 5

+2 Taylor Co = 7

1 good sized boar down=8

+3 Stephens county. 11

2 in Throckmorton County last week, that is 6 during the deer season.

1 hog down in Fairfield Tx.

1 hog down in Fairfield Tx.

If you get a good sized one and weigh it can you add what it weighed?

That boar we shot last night was 242 lbs, I was curious good sized pig

This thread is getting purty convoluted. I think I count 14 total to date?

I camped out there overnight, disappointed I didn’t get more pigs. But I did get a coyote and a gobbler too.

Plus 2 = 336, Kimble County.

Pulled up to the corral trap and my system finally worked! At least 8 of the little orphans were in there. They'd stayed in all night. Then, as I got out, they started getting inspired to jump about two feet above the 4X4 panels and wiggle out the panel behind it with 6" wide holes. I got some .22 lead in some, but, I actually stopped and executed...1. (6" panel was immediately overlayed with more 4X4.) I continued to throw lead with the 10/22 at the little bastards as they went this way and that through the brush outside the corral. Not efficient, but kinda fun. Trying to trap pigs on this place has made me appreciate the phrase "It's a process."



Later this morning, rounding to fill a few corn feeders, there were two small-to-medium size under a feeder (with more itty bitty ones flowing around them). They were nervous and jigging around, but I managed to get a .280 bullet in one that ran off and took a wild-hair, 200 yard shot at the second one trotting away and heard a "whack!" Checked the first one's blood trail with Bebe the wonder dog (she's worthless, but has a ton of fun trying ) and found nothing. Walking to where I tried for the 2nd one, I was shocked to see him laying there stone dead. My 100th confirmed pig kill on the ranch. (5 to 10 have been made by some good friends visiting.) I and others have put plenty of lead in numerous others, but not recovered or confirmed kills. Still, in 3 years, it oughta be 250+, but, it's somethin'...for a city boy.

Back in February, Brought home almost 100lbs. after the processor was done. She taste good too. Rains County #337

Tapped this one going to water this morning in Coleman County.

Make it 338.

https://texashuntingforum.com/forum...re-boys-weekend-at-the-ranch#Post8610489
+7 =359

The She-Wolf dropped this one in the rain this morning. Make it an even 360.

Got a shoat last night, Fort Bend County (361). Used my 357 Blackhawk to finish it off, first blood for that gun. I think this one was actually behind a larger hog I shot at, but that one ran through the fence into a dense swampy area so not counting it without confirmed kill.

+1= 362 Hunt county

Sow down in Llano. The buzzards helped me find it
363

Gammaw put in some work this week. + 23 =386

+1 150lb sow yesterday evening = 387.

Another hog down in Fort Bend County, first one with an SKS (and probably last, but it was fun). 388.

I havent even seen one on my place South of Bowie. Not even when I drive around the dirt roads. But, I know they are there.

I think I’ll put some corn in a feeder and see what happens. Not real wild about sitting outdoors in the heat.

I havent even tried since about May, need to make a trip and add to these numbers

+4=392. Kimble County. Momma didn't go in the trap. She's still out there.

+3= 395 Hunt County

The boy and I shot 2 with the night vision last night. Forgot to get photographic evidence. Navarro county + 2= 397

Not sure how this idiot got stuck. The trap wasn't even set. Regardless, +1= 398.

^^^ Yes, when my traps work, I feel like I'm just eliminating the dumb ones.

+2=400. Kimble County.

My usual hogs appear to only be coming to the feeder about 2am in the morning, too late for me. they seem to really be avoiding the heat.

+3 little piggies that didn't make it home = 403. Kimble County.

+1 Rusk County = 404

+1 Hunt County = 405

+1 young boar=406. Kimble County.

Hit 3, actually put my hands on 1 tonight

So plus 1, 407

+2=409. Kimble.

Buddy and I saw a lone boar this weekend in Reklaw, Texas. We didn't have a way to weigh it, but he was a big boy. Guessing between 225-250. HUGE chompers too.

This one got shot off the front porch Thursday morning. I was leaving to see a customer and almost gave him a pass but I’d just loaded up a 100, 65GR Gamekings and hadn’t shot one yet. It hit right where I pointed it at 125. Cost me 15 minutes of workday to drag him off. It was worth it.
