TX should arrange for massed groups of spear hunters to trot around 
urban areas or places where discharge of firearms would perturb folks. 
Bound to have much hilarity ensue and make it much more exciting to 
hunt boar with a stick than with full auto AR15

Re: [MBZ] OT Them Hawgs

2019-12-04 Thread G Mann via Mercedes
Years ago when I lived in Northern Tribal Territories of Pakistan and
Afghanistan we formed a group that hunted wild pigs with spears. The spears
were forged from Bedford truck spring and firmly fitted to 8 ft shafts..
I can tell you from personal experience, watch your selected pig carefully
and kill it on the first thrust, or it will hurt you badly. It was not a
hunt for the meek.
I quit after one hunt partner lost a leg, then died by bleeding out. It was
a long way to any serious medical help. Muslim area, so it was only "kill
and release", no eating pork.

Is that to say they consider a bow and arrow to be a weapon and silently

Or, live trap and haul away to somewhere that will allow you to shoot them?

Make a large version of a skunk trap out of a barrel and mount it on a 
trailer so it is easy to do.


Rent the contraption out to your neighbours once you have enough wild

2019-12-04 Thread Dan Penoff via Mercedes
They breed like rabbits, so eradication is pretty much not a concern. We have a 
small group of them here, maybe 10-15, and that number can easily double in 6-8 
months. When we start seeing them during the day in the open we call the 
trapper. I would say we bring him in roughly every 18 months or so. He’ll 
easily take 6-8 in a night, which is enough to thin the herd, so to speak.

If you can make good money charging people to hunt pigs, that money goes away

Hogs are all over Texas, they tear up everything and can be really 
nasty.  My ex-BIL had them tearing up his yard in a Houston area housing 
development, he was itching to put some meat on the smoke but no weapons 
allowed to be discharged in the neighborhood.  I have not had any but my 
neighbor went out and shot them and said the meat was really tasty, esp 
after acorn season, so not sure where the writer got that misinformation 
about the taste.  Probably dono nuffin bout smoke.
