I have caught the wild hog on camera for three straight nights in a row. Been coming in eating all the deer corn off the ground. He has been showing up at around 1:00am and 3:00 am like clock work... I need to know how to kill this beast!







I think this is HIM!

If I place a light by the feed with just enough brightness to see it moving around, would it disturb the deer and would it keep the hog from coming in and feed?

I imagine an led light hung from a tree might resemble moon light. Should be enough for you to see. The tricky part is getting to your stand without disturbing the hogs regular pattern.

So this hog has been eating your deer you say? Got damn! You have no choice.

I would post up in a stand with about a 12 Pack and an iPod and hang out one night with a spotlight. Or you can get one of those green light feeder lights that hang on your feeder. Hogs are not one bit disturbed by green lights. Sit , drink, wait, shoot. Post vids afterwards.

Yiu can get those lights to hang under your feeder that just put out enough light to see what is there.

first check local game laws.

second get a sufficent rifle (not rim fire)

third figure out two spots 50 yards or more from feeder where you can hunt on opposite sides of the feeder.

Set out with a friend from 1030 or so to early in the am down wind from the feeder. Bring a battery powered spotlight.

friend holds light and you get gun. When he comes out shine and shoot.

ear hole if you want pork, boilerroom if you want him to run off and die.

be ready to make a follow up shot if he charges after first shot.







DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING AT THE FEEDER PRIOR TO DOING SO. Old boars are smart and have great noses. If you go in and add extra bait or fill the feeder he will know and it will change his pattern. Be quite when you are out there as hogs have good hearing despite common belief.

I have found solar landscape spotlights from wally world do not spook the hogs and are relatively cheap. However, being in there to set them up may tip your hand to the hog. I typically just put them in the legs of the feeder aiming down. I would set up wait a few days then bust his arse.

By the way I didn't say I had a feeder out there...

I pour and scatter the corn...

Always scare to leave the feeder out there, someone might steal it during hunting season...
