TexasDeerHunter Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 I was out checking feeders and such at our lease when a group of nine hogs wandered out. The rancher wants them gone and they have torn up our feeders so I began slinging lead with my .357 Winchester truck gun. When the smoked cleared eight of the nine were dead. It was pretty hot and they spoiled pretty fast. I just feel bad that I killed them and did not salvage any meat. http://www.realtree.com/img/521/medium/Hogs.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hutchies Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Re: Felt Bad Yesterday.... Man I would have felt real bad if I didn't get any of the meat. For those of you that have never ate wild hog........................It is great. I would have at least grabbed that little one and made for the smoker as fast as possible.

Texan_Til_I_Die Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Re: Felt Bad Yesterday.... Nice shootin! Too bad that ninth one got away. Did you run out of bullets or just miss? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Re: Felt Bad Yesterday.... Shoot, Id hate to waste them too but it is what it is. The good news is im sure there is still plenty of meat running around on the hoof around the area! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasDeerHunter Posted July 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Re: Felt Bad Yesterday.... Yeah, Texan the ninth was a miss. I usually go to lease prepared, but never thought to pack a cooler because it was a quick day trip and we have only seen pigs once. Lesson learned and I will definately pack a cooler with ice next time and plenty of shells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
