I'm not gonna throw out names, but feed lot hunting has won many contests over the years... and that's a fact.
And what about all the "previously caught" big boars and sows that folks turn out and feed all year on ranches that are saved for tournament hunts? They're not missing their nuts... but have all been previously caught.
Hog hunting is a small world my friend... there are no secrets.
Personally, I don't give two number 2s about it. When I hunt a contest it's for fun.
The whole point of me bringing it up is because it is unfair to folks who do catch some big barrs... especially when two of your participating contests are right here in SE Texas where catching them is a big possibility.
All of these contest and I agree that Barrs have a place in contest. You can still enter and win prizes and money for big barrs.
