Ted Newgent 4,896 Posted March 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2018 Well i have a rifle for sale. going back to that pig that got hacked to schitt. The bloke who shot that has his automatic trap set up just south of my mates. i got the call sunday that there was 9 pigs trapped how many do we want lol so we cherry picked 4. These are around 120lbs. Not even a year old so the meat shouldnt be rank. skinned and gutted 3 at the farm and just butchered 2. i am glad i picked up another 900 ft of waxed butchers paper last week 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
