Tony,
Sorry we had 4 boar hogs and 1 sow that we turned in. We actually had one more sow on the trailer that was about 200 too. I have nothing against traditions that have been passed down. Talked to my grandpa about this and he said that some used to do that, but most weren't picky at all. He said that they didn't have the money turn a Barr hog loose in country to let get bigger. What ever they trapped or caught they ate. Didn't matter if it was a boar sow or piglet.  It was a meal for them. 

Dirtydog, we were going to weigh, but the damn tractor got stuck in the sand, and I mean deep sand... Once we got the tractor out we had to pull our truck out, hog was Panicking bad so we put him in the hog trailer...

TShelly, we catch a few here and there, We took one to the TDHA competition, that went 255... that's the last one we've caught...
If I remember right Clayton, Will and I caught one about 2-1/2 years ago, that was a MONSTER BARR, I'll see if I can find a pic and post it...



That's cool Clayton, I thought I had remembered Able said y'all took one up there. Must have been year before. There's one or two running around nicks place we took the nuts out of after they got caught in a bobcat trap lol, if y'all end up catching them one day let me know. Id like to know how big they end up. They are around 130# now
