I don’t actually hunt them so much as I shoot them when I can. Our big ranch is 42 sections and I cover most of it daily taking care of the oil and gas production, most of my shooting is out the window of the truck. 25 years ago we didn’t have any hogs, last year I killed 68. They just keep getting thicker each year. I went from a bolt action rifle to a M4 style semi auto in 5.56 as my daily truck rifle a few years back. It just came to the point I needed more fire power. This is in West TX, my buddy in South TX has a much bigger problem.

42 sections?!?! Son of the mother of hell!!

I have problems taking care of barely an acre.

Can I come down sometime and shoot some pigs? I’ll stay in a hotel and you’ll never know I’m there. :-)

Our big problem is just seeing them in East Texas. All timber. You can usually draw them into a feeder.
