Those look nice! My favorite animal to hunt!

Nice pigs!  They're just about lined up for a 2fer.

I am glad we don't have hogs where I live, but I wish I could hunt hogs where I live... if that makes sense.

[highlow]

Makes perfect sense Coach. Wish it were the same here in Jersey. Some in southern part of state but none up here in the northern part yet and I'm afraid by the time they do make it, I'll be long gone.     :(

Pig pictures are always cool and never get old!

Thanks for sharing.

I`ve hunted deer and pigs in the same swamps most my life. If anything the pigs have been declining. My favorite critter to hunt.RC

Mountain hogs can fool ya....I thought this one was a boar. ...but due to all the climbing even the sows are muscled up...looked a lot more like a boar on the hoof than the hero pic.....

Nice pig Terry, R.C. ours seem to be on the decline as well.

[Terry Green]

Ron....why do you think that....do you think there is a lot of trapping going on down there or poaching?

Good luck! I don't have mtns where I hunt, so no mtn hogs for me!

Our hog population in definitely increasing. The area around where that picture was taken (on WMA in Pickens County) has more hogs on it than I've seen in the last 30 years. And there are some monsters in there.

They are hard to bow hunt, though. It's rare that the wind stays constant, and, if there's no wind, your scent really hangs around.

I only got to go to Cohutta once this year but it was loaded with hog sign I'm not sure what's up in south Georgia if they're on the decline but it was nice to see an increase in the mountains this year which seem to be on the decline the last five years

RC : I think you are the sole reason those pigs are declining

I can't wait to move to Georgia to hunt in the mountains in North Ga. I would love just to see one of them big ones. Do you pattern them around the food source or is it just a hit or miss encounter.

I was thinking the same thing!

I'd love to chase pigs in the mountains.  They are very adaptable.
