**** “Wild pigs don’t have much/any bacon” ****
Those feeding on Corn or Milo Fields do have Pork Belly ... I would Pen them and Clean them up* before going for the Pork Belly.
I only “Harvest” the little <80lbs for human consumption myself .. the Buzzards and other Hogs* get fat from my leavings, (which is everyone of them that didn’t get away)
Thx, GPA! I pinged my brother to your post, good stuff.
Thanks, sent your link to my younger pig hunting relative.
After he gets his kids through college, he would like to hire out to be a professional wild pig/hog assassin with his compound bows.
Excellent suggestion to release wild pigs near Jihadist Training Camps in America.

Those guys have the Tools and the Intel... They went to War on Feral Hogs...
**** “I have been advised that my procedure might have been safer than using a 357” ****
I disagree ... local Old Guy (70/80 yr old) and his Wife hear that there is a big Gator in their Tank ... Old guy says he will go take a look, Mom is in the Car (AC) tells him “Don’t get close to the Gator” he walks over the Berm to survey his Tank (LEFT his 44 Mag in the Car) ... 20 minutes pass... Mom walks over the Berm finds Old Guy layed out with a big slice in his leg ... said he saw the Gator but this Big Pig came outta nowhere, ran right into him and then ran away. His Wife called me, we stopped the bleeding and then 40 miles to the Hospital, 40 miles of “I left my 44 in the car” I don’t think a Fishing Rod would have changed his situation or changed the conversation on that drive to the Hospital.
Sidebar... Now I can Hunt Hog on his Property any time I want, Thing is now I live 130 miles away. (But if I could Fish in his Tank as well hmmmm... it might be worth the trip, I’ll bring a 357 and a Fishing Rod!) :^) He might go for it after your story.
The feral hogs are very unpredictable out here and will attack if provoked and sometimes without provocation.
I haven’t heard of an attack by one of the Fort Ross Russian Boars unless they were wounded or someone got between them and their hoglets.
I have a Ruger Stainless Steel 357 that fits in a canvas chest sling/hoster. I got it for the two legged vermin lurking by the remote streams in Oregone and Californicator land. They leave a crazy old fly fisher alone, when he talks loudly about slaying the enemies in the woods if they get too close. It is very obvious and doesn’t impact my fly casting.
