Well fella's it don't matter if that hog is 5lbs or 5000 lol, those fella's accomplished what they wanted to and got their names out spread far and wide........other seasoned hog hunters can and will call bs left and right BUT all the yuppies and uneducated folk will fall right into this and have no idea that the ol boar hog wasn't near the weight that they were told...........I'd almost bet that they end up getting more land to hunt because all the folks that have hogs and don't know/care to mess with em will be callin the man who killed the "monster hog" to come help them out as well..............win win for him lol, I doubt he was worried much about other hunters callin BS, if he was we woulda never even seen these pics, as they say, no publicity is the only bad publicity.  Wink

Im not so sure about this yet.  I have a Video and picture editing department with computer graphic illustrators that I work with.  I'm sending them the link and I'm going to see if they can tell me more and or prove anything about the pic.  I wouldnt mind being the person that send a reply to the article telling them it is a fake.  If you look at the bottom of the article on the site provided, many people have already commented.  Im waiting for info to come back from my video folks before I comment.

If i killed anything i thought would be questioned, i would have references in the photo so it would be more apparent his size, or a video actually measuring and weighing him. Regardless, he's a hoss, also, guess he must've shot him on the other side cuz i'm not seeing a wound of any type

Agreed on shot placement being on the other side, but if it was a 7.62 there would hav been an exit wound.

Even as big as that hog is, i woulda thought there'd be an exit wound with a 308.  I had to look twice, but there's a stump up under his jaw. And that squirrel is gonna make a potful of dumplins! WOOwhee!

I've killed a quite few big hogs using a boat tail hollow point .308 and dug the bullet out of em when I skinned em. I don't think the picture is legit but not because I don't see an exit wound.

Nobody said the pic is fake only on the basis of no exit hole. There has been several other thoughts as to why its fake. Iv used 168gr blackhills n it made a pass through, at 100yds on a 200lb hog. Iv also got a pass through with 180gr btsp.

I saw the news video.  Still not persuaded it is that large.  In the vid the guy who owns the land said it was 8' long and filled up the bed of a truck.  Hmmmm.  They didn't show any picture of it with a tape measure  ...  or a picture of it in the bed of that truck ... and damn sure a picture of the hog on the scales and a close up of the scale.

The only pictures they show are the 2 or 3 shot in the woods.

Most people would have lots of pictures.  Especially if it was actually that large. 

With this sketchy amount of documentation  ...  I think it is "over-stated".

Thought the same thing about the pictures.  Cant judge the size in any of them.
Also, find it odd they mentioned the 800lb "hogzilla" and that this wasn't his first "big boar" that his "similar sized" pig is mounted. No weight or pictures. Didn't forget the important details that he used an AR at 50 yds....

all bull aside 4 years ago a buddy of mine killed a 662 sow he called me and said he bottomed the scale out a 500 at the shimp factory down the road from where he killed it I called him a liar.  so I met him at the CAT scales and all bullnumber 2 certified cat scales 662.  I text him when I looked at this to see if he will send me a picture.  she was black but she had some floppy ears but there is not any hogs for 50 miles it was killed in the marsh
