If you get two pigs with one shot, can you add their weights toward the biggest pig prize?

Being raised in a gunshop is a advantage I've been a gun looney since I was a kid! Odd ball cartridges have always been my passion! So don't loose hope, and owning a gunshop don't hurt either!

Woo Hoo the shirts came in today. I'm still trying to decide what to bring for armament.
I've been looking at golf bag cases to hide my guns in when checking into motels-may just punt and strap them to my pelican.
Question for the out of state folks who've driven in. Has anybody had dead pork processed locally and done quickly enough to pick up on the way out of Texas?

JLimbo, Not really. Kevin the guide took my three pigs (thank you Dan and Carl!)pork to Uvalde Meat Processing. http://www.uvaldemeatprocessing.com/ They called me two days after the hunt to get my preferences of cuts and processing. The meat arrived about a week later. It was expensive, about $500 total for processing and shipping, but delicious.

I haven't had mine processed locally, but after they quarter it at camp I bone it out, bag it, ice it and haul it home in the cooler..3 day trip....The meat is excellent by the way...

I'll donate my pork to anyone who want's it or to Hunters for the hungry.
I buy a 4-H pig every year at my county fair.Usually from one of my nieces or nephews.

I used Uvalde meat processing as well. Since it's more or less in the way to my deer lease, I picked it up when it was ready. I swung by their shop, and they have a large window into the meat cutting area. It seemed to be very clean & professional, and I was very satisfied with my pork.

I will doing that this time. Do you think the meat will last four days if I keep the ice fresh? Just keep adding ice on the way home and draining the bloodied water. 8 hours home for me, but I leave the ice chest in the garage for several more days adding ice and draining as needed, then I take it to the processor for the deboning and final cuts. Just the way I do the job.
