296 hogs in 7 hours
 

Anybody else saw the Pigman series show just earlier? They were shooting hogs from a chopper and they ended up with 296 hogs and 10 coyotes. All in about 7 hours. That's crazy! Looks like some fun to me!

Yeah....I love that show

I'm glad someone is knocking out the pig pop!

I have a consultant that works for me with a ranch in south Texas - Golden Triangle area. He was paying to have pigs trapped/hunted on his place for 3 years. This year he was paid $4k dollars by an outfit to come in with clients and fly his ranch to shoot them. They killed 119 in 4 hours with 3 guys. He told them to come back anytime!!!!

DAMN..... What do they do with all of the meat?

New Report
 

I start by saying I am not a deer management expert. But, LDWF has just conducted an intense study about the effect of feral hogs on deer population. The leading expert, Scott Durham, has recommended easing restrictions on the killing of hogs, including helicopter assaults.

Again, I am no expert, nor do I like all the money wasted on government "studies", but I thought I would add this for discussion.

Kill them all!

He gave them all they wanted and dug a hole with his backhoe.

usually cost about $5,000 for 3 hr minimum

Would work well in the marsh and agriculture land but our landscape is much different than TX and then there is the whole black bear issue and when a shooter is in a helicopter he/she is just seeing objects run around and that one 'slip' when a bear comes running out the briar patch and gets shot..:redface: But we do have fairly liberal laws for hog hunting, would like to see the WMAs open year round for this, but again all it would take is one or two slip ups and it would all be over. My in-laws have dogs for everything (foxes, squirrels, coons, deer, hogs, rabbits, etc.) and I love em to death, but they are not the most ethical folk, and I don't know if they should be given free range on a WMA at night with guns and silencers and night vision:rotfl: I am serious:eek: Of course, they are part of the problem and I tell them this every single time we hang out and will tell them again at Christmas dinner. What they do is catch hogs and place them out on their place and their buddies' place, and their buddies place etc. so they can have several populations to run their dogs. This has ceased now but it happens ALL the time up in N La

I watched the replay at 11:30 and that was an insane hunt!

What station is this on?

This was on sportsman channel on direct tv
