	Hogs are making it hard on my deer hunting so, I'm making it hard on them. A 170 gr cast, in the ear or the boiler room, eliminates the offending party.

	Great job. Believe it or not, there's a bunch in Canada starting to move down into Minnesota and North Dakota. Who would have guessed that they could survive in our country.

	That’s a lot of pork! Good for you reducing the hog population and doing it with vintage style!

	Nasty looking beasts... Here in Georgia they do so much damage to agriculture. Millions of dollars every year. They have decimated one golf course here locally. One caretaker roams the course at night on a golf cart armed with an AR with night optics. We shoot on site no questions asked. JMH

	Nice shooting. Recently at a get together, I had pulled pork and smoked tenderloin from a wild hog, it was delicious! Not gamey tasting at all.

Well, ya oughta shoot that caretaker on sight! If he's impeding those hogs in getting rid of another vemin-ridden golf course, he's gotta be stopped.

	They do tear up the fields and pasture. The little "crock pot" pigs with potatoes, onions and carrots, sure make a nice supper after a hard day.

Great opportunity to shoot but a great waste of a lot of meat.

Terrible waste of meat! Great opportunity to shoot but a great waste of a lot of meat. In Kansas the landowner or his designated agent can shoot hogs without a permit. They can do whatever they wish with the meat. We’ve been fortunate so far as I believe there to be only a limited number of feral hogs along our southern border. The state used to use helicopters to control them, don’t know if they still do or not, but they claim hunting them just scatters them worse to reproduce. They also claim that some landowners will let the hog population explode in order to make more from hunting if allowed. Don’t know if I really believe all that or not.

	Northern California once had so many feral pigs that they did it like a fishing licence limit, one in possession and when it was consumed (or gone) go out and get another. I went with a friend and shot a few. Tough lil' buggers. But, as has been said here already, they taste just like the ones in the store. Make good barbeque too.

	They will never control the hog population in Texas and most other states. There is too much money being made in attractants, hog "specific" ammo, firearms, etc. They are legal to take 365/24/7. We trap them, shoot them, bow hunt them and thanks to my wife and the spear she gave me for Valentines day, we gig them too.
