    Went on my first hog hunt last night/this morning. Had a blast.

    Pictures aren't the best, but here they are.

    This was more about helping a buddy out with his farm land they are destroying.


    "You shut your mouth when you're talking to me!"

    So.... that means you had a purpose to kill them, not that you need one but, you killed it none the less.

    Man enough to kill it but not man enough to harvest the meat?

    The purpose of hunting some animals is to harvest meat. Others because they are a nuisance/pest and they need to be killed until they are dead. What's the issue? I killed a cockroach last night and didn't eat it, and now I feel horrible. Thanks Dishonered. :(

    I hear where you're coming from, D. I had a problem with the fact that in Texas, they mow them down from helicopters, Full Metal Jacket style, and leave them in the fields where they fall.

    But... After heavily researching the subject, it's clear that they are a non-native, extremely destructive species, with no predators other than man. Their presence here disrupts our ecosystem. The "job" isn't harvesting meat, it's eradication. The fact that the are "open season" year round illustrates this.


    ETA: Speed beat me to it... Curt, save that roach for me.

    Dishonered- With all do respect. These things are tearing up land in rapid fashion, costing farmers and land owners a great deal of money. Something has to be done. Just like the prairie dog issue out west.

    I have immense respect for not only every animal, bird, or fish I hunt but also for those raised for food and I try daily to instill that into my children.
    Feral hogs are a different story, they are to be Killed first and foremost then if some choose to eat them, well that is a byproduct.

    I think we've established some people feel different about the subject, now let's get back to congratulating Craig on his successful extermination and all PMing him begging for an invite to the next hunt. :o
