Hawg Daddy strikes again.

[DaveS]

Went out this morning and seen 5 Hogs. Two of them went "Wee, Wee, Wee", all the way to the cooler.

 

This little sow dressed at 150 pounds taken during a LEGAL hunt .

 

 

 

 

Have a blessed day!

Nice!  While I wouldn't mind dropping one, I don't want them in my area.  Those things will tear up more than they eat.

Might want to check this out  https://www.tn.gov/twra/article/wild-hog-regulations   If you are not in compliance I'm not sure I would be posting.

Dear Sir;

     I am more than in compliance, "or I wouldn't be posting"! Apparently you don't know me....just saying. Have a blessed day. Here ya go. "Landowners have more opportunity than ever before to control wild hogs on their properties. They can shoot wild hogs year-round during the day without limit and trap with bait outside of big game seasons. Furthermore, landowners may obtain an exemption from their TWRA regional office enabling them to kill wild hogs at night using a spotlight, and to trap year-round." - See more at: https://www.tn.gov/twra/article/wild-hog-regulations#sthash.ljLZvIqo.dpuf

I have to admit that I'm curious as to how DaveS is in non-compliance. Seems to me that other than transporting the live hogs to be used for sport hunting one can kill as many feral hogs as one desires.

The laws have changed that only permits the property owner (or permitted guest) to shoot hogs. Some WMA's still allow the hunting of hogs under certain circumstances. I just happen to fall into a "special" category.  LOL

 

Have a blessed day

Don't take it as being called out, take it as someone trying to look out for you.

As a follow up, does anyone have an idea of the spread of these guys?  Last I heard there were small populations in Montgomery county, but it seems they are just multiplying worse than rabbits.

Honestly, when it comes to pigs Omega, I need no one to look out for me. Me and my partners do just fine. Trust me.

They do multiply extremely fast. They are showing up every where. If they're not there today, just wait, they'll be there next week! Tennessee's "No hunt" theory on hogs is a total failure. They say it's working, but we are finding hogs in more places than ever before. They are in Montgomery County and Stewart County is overrun with them.

 

They are born in liters of 6-8 and can give birth at 6 months of age and drop a liter every 6 months. So, you can see how fast they spread!

Theyre all over the Back 40 too. Around Bastogne DZ I heard them rooting around off of Al Heath.

Dont quote me but I think Fort Campbell has a year around hit on them. Did not read into it too much - nor do I want to register my weapons with the provost marshal

There was a reg that allowed them to be taken when hunting big game but I haven't hunted FTCKY in years.  Then, they were around area 9 but were so few I never seen sign of them.  I don't mind registering my weapons I use on post, but unless they changed, center fired was far and few between.

They can only be taken during regular big game hunting season with the approved weapon.

They have been causing problems for some time now. TWRA not aggressive enough to slow down hog production.

Did this hog come from Montgomery county ?

5 at a time !!!!!! you are doing your part.

[felinesNfreedom]

Nice Pig. I don't understand why TWRA regulates hunting them like they do. If they are such a problem why not allow you to harvest them year round any way  possible?

[SupaRice]

NICE! I'm headed to TX to hunt them (at night) in a few weeks!

Pigs are open season year round in TN as I understand, and land owners can get a permit for night time removal if their land qualifies.

The twra said they caught a bunch of jerks bringing them in and setting them loose so that there would be hunting for them.

I'd love to get a lease somewhere in TN where I could bust deer, coyotes, pigs, and birds.

[Omega]

As stated above, some unethical hunters imported them so they could hunt them not realizing or not caring what they would do in the wild.  That is why it's a two edged sword if they approve them as a game animal.  Eradication is the only way to manage them, but those that want to keep them around to hunt will always want them here no matter what.  That is why I stated that I would like to drop one or two a year, but do not want them in the area.

I'm still ready for you to take me.

If I'm around I'm down for it. I travel a lot, but I live no more than an hour from several places in south Florida that have monster hogs.
