You don’t shoot porcupines, you pick them up and make a pet out of them…

No pets for me.


Catching, sedating, and pulling quills from a 150 pound guard dog is fun enough!

Not much for them to eat in the hill country. I killed some I couldn’t drag an inch in the piney woods. I can drag a 200 pounder a little ways. They can get real big if they have good eats! This was killed on Weirgate lease in Newton county

This one in Madison county, weighed 400

Serious ? When they get that big do you eat them or just bury/dispose of them.

I wish they could have weighed that gray pig. The man in that pic is 6’4” tall. It’s hard to judge pig weight. I would have bet a hundred dollar bill the 190 lb pig would have weighed 210 or more. The biggest we have weighed in Burnet was a sow that weighed 210


They killed one in Livingston county a 650 four wheeler could hardly drag. We had no scales

Kinda' like this pix of Walterhog on AR in the Africa Hunting Forum........

IMHO,

One of my pet peeve's is to see a guy standing 2' to 4' behind a critter. It can weigh 100 lbs and look like 300 lbs.

Hogs and bears are two critters that appear to be much heavier than they actually are, and of course when no scale was is available, the weight is "estimated".


Ask me how I know



[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

250 lbs., weighed



[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

275 lbs, weighed.

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]


[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

+/- 275 lbs., weighed

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

The guy in the pix is 6' tall. At a weighed 315 lbs. this is the heaviest hog I've weighed in 24 years of hunting the Texas Hill Country.


End of rant!

ya!

Agree Geedub...that guy with the buffalo sure has big fingers!

( as if you need to 'longarm' a freaking buffalo...)
