Ted Newgent 4,896 Posted March 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 Farmer friend has had the crop insurance people on his land with pig control hunters. They have been using heat seeking drones to locate the pigs and setting snares. also they are going to set up a trap that will contain the pigs when activated by a phone. all the above is illegal for me to do. they caught one in a snare which the pig broke loose from. No shit sherlock anyways the pig is now hanging in my garage. before anyone starts, i didnt skin it out, the farmers helper did with a sawzall lol hence the fckn hack job i told him to use a chainsaw next time 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Born Hunter 17,751 Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 I'd be surprised if the f***ing farm hand has all his fingers left looking at the state of that! Did he have his eyes shut and just start slashing FFS? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ted Newgent 4,896 Posted March 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 (edited) i took a drive south yesterday and made the long walk through 3 feet of snow to get at the cams. there wasnt many trodden down game trails to walk.anyways got to the cams and changed out the cards. pigs were coming in every damn day at 4pm ish until we had the big dump of snow and we couldnt get in there to bait.last pic of them was over 10 days ago. couple of photos of two baby pigs so something happened to mum or the rest of the litter.
