re: Speaking of feral hogs, anyone noticed fewer this year?

frick no. We’re overrun. I shoot multiple every time I go out there and my leasing tenant smokes a few a week. I got fed up and I’m just drilling them with the Creedmoor from across the pasture now.

This will never be enough. You have to trap whole sounders and stop putting food where they can get to it. Sorry to say, it’s expensive.

We’re actually not feeding at all this year because we had to boot the guys that we were leasing to. I’m wondering if less activity on our place and everyone else hunting like normal has them running my way.

Interesting. Do you have a lot of water on the property?

Good bit for the cattle. But it’s not a shite load.

Good point. They certainly love the mud

We are south of Abeline about 70 miles.
In 21 we killed more than 30. 22 started hot. 8 feeders with 15 to 20 every night. Killed 10 or so. Drought hit and they vanished. Mid September they showed up again. Just about every feeder 10 to 15 a night. Killed a few and then stopped for bow season. They have pretty much scaled back again. Lots of tracks in the fields, but staying away from
The corn. They are there, just changing pattern

Where abouts? Our place is about 55 miles south of Abilene near Santa Anna

That sounds like a blast tbh

I’ve seen zero while hunting. I’ll get them on camera at my one feeder but it hasn’t been nearly as bad.

(no message)

I'm over run with them in st helena. And they're out every night except the nights we "hunt" them from the box stand with green led lights on our rifles. They don't show themselves during daylight.

I had way more deer around last year and the year before, pretty sure they bolted because of these dang hogs.
