When asked why he always got the bigones, an older friend of mine used to say "I can't see the little ones, I get what I can see".

Me, too. The big ones are just so much easier to shoot!

Here's one in what I call the coyote feeding station, this is the unfortunate reality of being over run with pigs....There's a limit to how many pigs you can give away...But coyotes with full bellys stay out of trouble.

note another .223 wound LOL

Rick..A dead pig is always a good place to shoot coyotes....

Rick..what do hogs #1 & #3 have in common?

rickyrick · March 9, 2012, 11:14 PM

The pigs look pretty big LOL

Keg · March 9, 2012, 11:41 PM

Yep..they both got socks on the front feet... Why might that be? I know...

rickyrick · March 10, 2012, 01:09 AM

I'm guessing a eurasian trait

Keg · March 10, 2012, 01:11 AM

Naw...........hahaaaaaaaaa............I will post tommorrow...........thats funny.

rickyrick · March 10, 2012, 07:47 AM

Ok, because the hair is a different color there than the rest.

Keg · March 10, 2012, 08:54 AM

I don't anymore..but I used to see one ever so often with white front feet or legs....Someones hampshire pig got loose....

rickyrick · March 10, 2012, 09:18 AM

Now that's bacon!

I haven't killed any pigs year to date, I suspect that they are here now but haven't been able to get out the last couple of weeks.

I see some that still have the big white stripe, but the majority are red or black, black with tipped hairs being the most common.

Of course the occasional polky dotted.LOL

ChrisHarris · March 17, 2012, 08:46 PM

I'm jealous.

I want to shoot a couple meat hogs with my .54 caliber traditional muzzleloader and a round ball.

They are here in Missouri, but nowhere near where I live. MO Conservation estimates only 5k - 10k in the state - mostly down south.

Keg · March 18, 2012, 12:02 PM

Chris..just be glad U don't have em....Cause when U got em..U got em for good....One thing about hunting hogs..It sharpens your shooting skills for a high powered rifle....
