LOL! I was just thinking about this thread the last few days. Almost a year has past since this thread and I've learned so much new stuff in that years time. Hogs are so much fun and not very easy to gather data on. Just last night I got 133 pics of hogs on trailcam. I watched a mud hole last week until some pigs showed up and started running and playing like little kids in the water and mud. Trying some new scents, baits, vocalizations. I now have several wild hogs as pets and it's helped very much in understanding their speech and what and when they use certain vocalizations. Cool animals! Lots of fun to study. So, who has something we should talk about? CK

Loads of info, and as mentioned it is a continual process.

Yes mine too. It's really a shame that the crack pipe got in the way. He was a real asset to traditional bow hunting and Tradgang.

That's sad to hear! I hunted with Curtis in Texas years ago. I always wondered what happened to him. He was a great contributor to this site, back in the day!

This thread is a wealth of information. Thanks for bringing it back, I probably never would have found it otherwise.

I am sure that I have stuff to add to this thread since 2006 as I have been hunting hogs regularly since then, which is 20 years.... I will get to it as soon as I can.

Good grief has it been that long since I first joined TG?

20 years last month! It wasn't too much later that we were hunting with Curtis down in the brush country. Still one of the most memorable hunts I've been on.

Norbert, you should come to Laredo with us..... it's chaos compared to the sweat hunts.

Have a read for yourself a read....

Any of the Laredo threads will fill you in....

I'm going to try and read over this, after all these years, this weekend and see what is missing that I have learned.

It will also serve as a good refresher course for yes I might have forgotten a few things.

"""which type of hog you are hunting. There are two very different type of hogs out there. The first type is what I call "Herd Hogs". These are younger hogs that always run in a pack. The pack consists of 10-25 hogs generally and range from 20# to around 150#. Generally the larger hogs will be Sows.

The second type of hogs are the dominant hogs. These hogs will either run singular or will run in a very small group of 3-4 hogs. These hogs are generally from 175# to the largest available. The Singular hogs are generally aged hogs that have seen everything the world has to throw at them. These are the true trophy's and require greater skill and determination to acquire as a trophy. Be prepared to fail if you have set out to hunt a lone, aged boar hog! These guys are sharp!"""

Heard hogs are usually sows with their young ones ninety nine percent of the time and they do not get up to A hundred and seventy five pounds unless they are an old sow and not a boar. This sow was every bit of two fifty. I'm 185 in the pic.

I And here's another two hundred and fifty plus pound sow

Now for instance this guy was running with a herd because he was after a hot sow......

More in a bit about the rest of that quote I posted....

Yes the easiest way to kill a big boar is when they follow a sow in heat.

Yes, sir agree. However it's hard to make that happen.
