Any of you mark the hogs you have caught when you release them again. Notch their ears, cut tails, ect...

Not real sure that would be a good idea, might get you a bad rep and cost you a couple hunting spots if word got out and your mark was identified.... |

Maybe its just a florida thing noah, but i think its kinda cool to know what hogs you have caught, alot of hogs that i have caught twice will be in the exact same area as the first time you catch them even if its a year later.

We tag them with an orange tag, then move them to my ranch. Its high fenced so its alot of fun and you can identify specific hogs and see how big they got in so many months and whatnot...

If a guy tried that up here in the Panhandle, and the land owners found out, you wouldn't have anywhere to hunt, PERIOD. They want them dead or gone and you better not get caught turning one loose or you might get stuck or shot!!!

I'm in the same boat. The landowner I hunt on most said "Kill them all, all sizes, boars, sows everything." Gotcha! Interesting to see what other folks do though. I think cantexduck and I may have the same mark. Maybe his is on the other side  |
