But what is the hog population now compared to what it was twenty years ago? What were the landowners attitudes about barring or catch and released as opposed to now? I'm pretty sure I would fall under the description of a "weekend warrior" hog hunter, and I'll tell you right now that I'm just doing what my landowners want, which is the most important thing when it comes to keeping a place to hunt. What do you think would happen if I had somebody call me about hogs tearing up this or that, and I want out there, caught a boar, cut him and turned him loose and the landowner found out? It better be a set of nuts worth mounting because they probably just cost you a place to hunt.
I would definitly be classified in the weekend warrior category! LOL
Blake "weekend warriors" is a term we use loosely describing all groups of people and sports. I certainly dont see you as a weekend warrior, I meant more so the guys that get amped up about hog hunting. Get all into it for a year or two and then move on to something else.. I dont hog hunt for a living but being in school still we do try and hunt 3 or 4 times a week until summer hits
We tie 99% of the hogs we catch whether we are taking em out, butchering them or marking and barring them. Tony said it best, we work em like livestock. I do understand on farmlands and places where you've been asked to kill or remove them, but that's rare for us. I enjoy catching big barrs though.
Thanks Ben
I know Tony just giving you a hard time.
