Maybe they're confusing feral hogs with Democrats?? They both breed like crazy and cause tons of damage!!!! BUT, dead hogs don’t vote. DF

Caught this pig this morning, he has some nice cutters. Guy on the lease gave him a dose of 357 blues.

There is so much difference in what most people call hunting , and what happens in Texas, Texans kill stuff, there is no hunting involved, you sit and watch corn thrown on the ground , and then you choose whether to shoot that deer or let it grow a couple more years. Its a business just like anything else, if you have the green you can shoot whatever you want, but hunting it is not .

I don't know where you live but you should come to Texas (especially the south Texas brush country) and show us the right way to hunt. Maybe a landowner will give you an opportunity to demonstrate your superior hunting methods and skills. The last deer lease I had was overrun with hogs and 10 of us killed over 70 hogs at corn feeders during bow season. When rifle season started they disappeared (went nocturnal) after you shot a hog with a rifle. The rancher let 2 young local young guys hunt hogs year round with dogs (pit bulls) except during hunting season. The weekend before bow season started they hunted all weekend with dogs and killed ONE small boar hog,

Funny thing.
The place we hunt has no corn/corn feeders or man placed feed just for them.
It has been harvested milo,cotton and peanut fields that have been harvested.
It was a fun time.

jimy perpetually proves he's dumber than a sack of hammer handles. Ignore the loser and you'll be better off, and certainly won't miss anything.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

I lived and worked in Odessa for years, the "deer lease" was my first experience at Texas deer hunting, it consisted of ten or twelve corn feeders on timers, set to go off at half hour intervals, us "hunters" could chose to sit and watch one of these feeders, or ride around in the back of a truck with a bench seat bolted to a rack in the back, the trucks were the most comfortable because you had a cooler beside you and the view changed as you changed feeders, there was no special equipment needed.
I have hunted 10 other states for everything from doves and grouse to mule deer and elk from Tennessee to Wyoming and no where was anything like what I experienced in Texas. I don't understand why Texans get so redassed over how they kill stuff, it's just not done like that anywhere else in the country, and in most places it's illegal to shoot from a truck or over bait, it's just that simple.

You wouldn’t kill much in South Texas if you didn’t scatter corn on the Senderos.

IF the Texians seriously wanted to reduce or eradicate feral hogs >>> QUIT charging an outrageous $$$$$$. ....
... and stop the generations old practice of "hunting" deer over a bait pile, which among other things attracts hogs. TX has perpetuated their hog 'problem'.
Quit giving in inch by inch then looking back to lament the mile behind ya and wonder how to preserve those few feet left in front of ya. They'll never stop until they're stopped. That's a fact.

Done any hog invasion studies lately? For whom? If feeding corn has caused the hog invasion problem, then perhaps you can explain how hogs have invaded other states that don't allow baiting...? Say.... Ummm.... New Mexico for instance. Over half the state has verified feral hogs now. Yet nobody has corn feeders. How can that be?

Who rides around in a truck drinking beer and hunting deer? Not me. I don't even know anyone that does. Divided we fall. Some parts of our country hunt deer with dogs. I'm not particularly fond of that method. In fact, we shoot dogs for chasing deer here. But it is how many hunt in some areas. Hunting a spot where corn is put out is unethical... While hunting a waterhole in the desert is all good. Got it.
