    Default Big Razorback

    So I had this big boar show up on camera at my farm on October 1st this past year. He’d show up on camera about once every week never in daylight. Well this went on until after deer season was over, never a daytime picture and no pattern. So just under three weeks ago I put a trap out with the idea that maybe just maybe I could catch this mythical beast. Well after two weeks of checking the trap daily and catching two extremely terrified deer, even though I was using soured corn as bait. I was beginning to feel pretty pessimistic about the whole thing. Well all that ended today. This was the first hog to show up on our farm and I’ll be more than happy if it’s the last, although that’s probably wishful thinking. Thanks to Loud1 for helping me get him weighed, 320 lbs.

    That's a grow'd one. Good job.
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    Good killing! What did the scale say?

    A cage trap I borrowed from a friend, probably 6’x11’x5’ with a drop door gate rigged to a cinder that once knocked over the gate drops and locks down. Was looking at building a coral style trap but figured I’d try the free one first.

    Good kill.

    I don't much about hog movement. I would guess he's roaming as he looks for love. In the past I've seen sign of a single hog moving through every now and again but it's never been regular.

    I guess I'm surprised that a boar would show up regularly with no sows around. Can someone explain? Or maybe he is on the way to the sows?

    You had a backhoe, should've just dug a hole and put him in it. Would have been simple and easy.

    Yea my guess along with others is that he would just pass through on his way to service his lady friends on other properties. I’ve been told by others that there are hogs on farms both up and down river from me.
