@MrLorenzotrigueros Thanks fo rliking the vids. What makes you think these hogs were all killed? I harvested 1 only and let the rest go. The letting go is what most Texas farmers hate. I only hunt once in a while. I'll take whats offered everytime, big or small. I will not however take a wet sow if shes alone with her pigglets. If a bunch in a group... I'll take one that looks dry. The best eating hogs are the ones that dont go to waste...
That boar looked more like 150-175 ( which is still great) and the small ones closer to 20 pounders ( perfect for the BBQ ). I'm speaking of hanging weight after cleaning. Not at all knocking you I think its a great catch. Those small ones on the grill with some corn and beans and a few beers....nothing much better than that!! Keep on sharing those videos hunter....
LOL Whats up Z??? Wish the hogs were in your area man. Moved out of mine too!!! I could take or leave traps. They are fun tho. Lets you get hogs you don't normaly see. More hogs in traps on the way. I promiss!!!
ABSOLULY! You named it, the US never had hogs before teh spainards brought them, They were farm pigs, they got loose and turned feral. Then game ranches bought russian boars and they got loose. Now we have a strange moxture running around. We do have some pure bred russians, my son has taken one and I have too. Lots of rock, hence broken cutters. Ive a recent dogging vid out. we took the biggest cutter out of about 400 pigs. 4" cutter. My son's russian was closer to 5"!
@bigD96000 Ive a vid showing me wrangling a hog just that way. After we played with it for awhile. With the trailers they drive them in and take them to market. I eat them all tho. A 300# boar kept draining on ice comes out just fine most of the time. Thanks for watching!
I've never sold a sinvle one. No meat markets around here. Dude has a market by him. Price is at .09 a pound. It was way up. No $ to even cover corn!!! Thanks for the comment.
Shanes a 3 hour drive from me. We do plan to hunt soon. He has a doe vid out, I haven't harvested yet. There WILL be more of DNAHOGHUNTER AND HOGDUDE1234 SOON!!! Its up to him on the deer...
Shoot Z! I have footage from 2 weeks ago of more pocket pigs in traps on my properties!!! And Dude.... Been Friends from about Day.... 8 I'm Proud to say. He's taught me alot for sure. You've been there from the start too! I believe you were my 3rd subscriber. Means alot Bub... Thanks.
Thanks Z. When my "Honey Do's" are done maybe I'll go see Dude again. Or maybe Uvalde. I'd like to hunt with my brother soon. Haven't done that since last September!
Thanks!!! This may be the first comment from you!!! That was Dudes trap. The weekend I hunted with him. Getting the bow spot set up, Only a 2 hour drive!!! LOL
it's amazing how huge hogs get, and how mean they are. most people see a hog and think "oh cute little piggies i'm going to go pet it, it won't hurt me" wrong, wrong, wrong
@irishmankentuckian there are places here in Texas that buy LIVE hogs and they test then for sickness, if they pass, then THEY do the butchering and send the meat overseas to Spain or places that have hunted their hogs out.
I can't remeber where I ended this vid. I haven't watched it for a long time. There is a series for the Dude hunts. That was one of them. It continues in the next vid. Thanks for the comment Danny!!!
@noposque Smaller is more tender... but theres alot more meat on the bigger ones. I like them about 150 or below. I now have a freezer full of big stuff, just cook it longer...
I'm sure Mama was in the area. She just didn't go in. I'm sure the boar went in, then the pigglets. We harvested one. Tube pulled that vid. And let the rest go. Including the boar. Thanks for asking.
and oh yeah.. those baby hogs were probably like.." mommy.. what those humans gonna do to us?" Mommy replies, "Don't worry, they're just gonna make bacons out of us". Baby hogs, "Mommy, what are bacons?"... hahahahahah
@IStandWithAmerica Hey, thats how Ive gotten all my hunting. But I dont own any property. Wish I did, Ild have people down to hunt for sure. This was on Dudes place, he has a bunch that he defends from hogs. But hes teritorial, when you hunt with him, he makes you stand unarmed in the dark at the feeder. If you survive, he sometimes lets you hunt after, just depends on his mood. Some times he makes me drive all the way home hogless!!! WSUP Shane! LMAO!!! We gotta book a hunt Bro!!! In April?
@bronxfan47 Hogs do about 4 million in damages to land and crops, not to mention other animals and wetlands. Yes, all hogs must go! They willl never be gotten rid of, but we all have to try our best to do our part. I find friends and land/estate owners that want help or want their place set up for hunting. Havent messed with the public land ... yet
verry interesting that the little piggy can survive a rattlesnake bite.especially when pigs are not native to America,so in time they came resistant to the rattlensake venom...maybe something for scientists?
Pigs are generally immune to snake bites due to think underskirt fat layer and special ferments in their bodies rendering venom useless. At worst a pig would be stunned for awhile and would be okay in several hours. Pigs actually consider venomous snakes their food.
just curious. i know these hogs are really bad in the southern states. but is there a tag limit? like can u kill all u want or is there limits? just wondering?
Hey dnahoghunter, is this your own ranch? If so, do you offer hunting services? I want to take a hunting trip down Texas but I'm unsure of where to go. I like your videos so I figured I would ask.
oh ok. idk why but ur hog videos are interestin and i learn more each time i watch them. jus like the big hog in this video where would you sell it if you dont wanna kill it yourself
hey guy, so i live out in japan now and there is a great deal of wild boar out here. tracks everywhere and they have been spotted as well. so i got a trap made and my question to you is what is the best thing to bait the trap with and should i bait the trap for a while without setting it. if you can give me some advice that would be great im new at this and im doing it to have a feast at work.
Do people in TX want to exterminate the hogs of their property? Do you hunt on public land or on private? I really like your vids and i hope i can do some hog huntin down there one of these days!
Hey I live over in vowta Texas and we have a hog problem but me and my dad can't seem to get them to go in the trap do you know what the best food is to get them in the trap we trid sour corn but they don't want it idk what to do can you give me any tips
when you got em penned up like that a .22 between the eyes will do the job,correct?Saw askthemeatman bring down steer with a .22 long.dropped like a rock.
naw, he hunts with bows. Most hog dogs are naturals, you turn them in a pen with a smaller hog and see what they do, does the dog bark and bay the hog or does it grab? Work with those instincts, teach a dog to grab while young, tug rope, give it a pig ear, then you need trailing dogs, hounds to find the pigs, start as pups and run a pig ear thru the yard and leave it at the end of the trail for the pup, I've gotta try all this myself with my new pit
from what i've seen on hunting shows,pigs are becoming a real problem.why isn't hunting allowed all year long.and what's the most effective round?i've got about 100 rounds of .308, is that too big?
I've heard it and soxy709 up ther e says so. Get them from the places around town. Have them break em up so they don't think you want them for yourself!!!! Its worth a try!!!!
They were brought by the Spainyards and some have moved in from Mexico. Others are Russians imported for ranches that get loose. Due to the fast breeding they are kind of native at this point, and are spreading fast. Some get moved by hunters which is against the law and let loose. But hogs travel fast, roam around alot and some just keep going and populate a new place. When the hunting preasure is on, or the food gets low, they move. Thats why sometimes they are around and sometimes not.
What's the problem if an animal resors gets bigger then humans are problems bc we have way to many and how would u feel if ur kids got killed for food and for no RESON how would u feel
Heather... u have a point of not killing HOGS but how about u try to live there,, u build farm for ur income and daily basic needs then the hogs destroy it.. what do u feel.. None other than that, hogs is their problem.. due to destroying what they invest for daily needs..and for the baby maybe they put it the cage feed then sell or eat.. the here is to save what they investing ok.. maybe u got it right,, GOOD JOB BUDDY, keep it up. its rare to catch a big one., ^^
