    16 folks hit the wrong button.
    It's not enough to simply tolerate the 2nd Amendment as an antiquated inconvenience. Caring for the 2nd Amendment means fighting to restore long lost rights.

    Never killed a hog but have seen what they can do. But have gun and will travel just sayin'
    “… duckhunting stands alone as an outdoor discipline. It has a tang and spirit shared by no other sport—a philosophy compounded of sleet, the winnow of unseen wings, and the reeks of marsh mud and wet wool. No other sport has so many theories, legends, casehardened disciples and treasured memories.”
    --John Madson, The Mallard, 1960

    "Never trust a duck hunter who cares more about his success than his dog's."

    seen their damage, but since i hardly ever deer hunt, i've never seen any. I'd like to bust a few though.

    That's a half-truth, tkykilr, respectfully. The massive, nearly-miraculous migration occurring in South Carolina is mostly due to human help. Unless some neighbors are releasing them near you, you are not going to have hogs if you aren't where they've liked to be already for hundreds of years.

    Our club is right across the street from a Marion County wma which has some hogs. And yet we don't have even a single hog visitor that'll one that's crossed Hwy 378. Not a one. Not ever, according to guys who've hunted there when it turned to stand hunting only and even one older gent who was a member when it was still a dogging club.

    Yes, kill them on your own land, but if you don't address the human equation of the problem, you won't have fixed anything.

    If you aren't willing to snitch, don't bother to bitch.

    Looks like the fruit of 12 years of grit and determination right there.

    No animal needs to suffer, but they are an invasive species and need to all be killed.

    Where hogs have lived for 400 years [yes, they have an historic range in the Santee and Savannah River basins], they should NOT be eradicated. Even if ruins our corn piles and Decomate high dollar game patch. God forbid someone interrupt our swamp goat killing.

    It's hilarious that in the Santee region where hogs have been for centuries on end, the fucking deer and turkey populations have exploded during the same time span that the hog population has increased. Kinda shoots to shit the notion that they mark the nadir of all wildlife.

    In fact...where there were no hogs [in the upstate/Piedmont], man eradicated turkeys and deer in this state. THEN, where there WERE hogs [lowcountry], the turkeys held out against poachers and the deer kept increasing like fucking rabbits.

    Where they've been relocated, please feel free to eradicate them. And their relocaters while you're at it. A dog off its owners chain is only partially to blame. Please gut shoot and cold heartedly murder the "trap and release" squad with equal prejudice.

    I know, I know. Fuck a pig, blah blah blah. Carry on, gnat brain.

    Pigs are not indigenous to South Carolina.

    They came with the Colonists.

    Pigs love acorns. If the pigs eat all the acorns in an oak flat, deer wont be there. If it floods, ducks wont be there.

    Pigs will eat turkey eggs.

    Pigs decimate crops, I dont have handy the dollar amount SC farmers have filed for crop insurance just last year for, due to pig damage. I saw it a month or so ago, and thought to myself that if I had that figure in the bank, I could retire, and retire pretty well...

    Just cause you like to shoot em, doesnt mean they are "good".

    No, they're definitely a scourge. But somehow turks and deer bounced back in the lowcountry from unregulated killing, even with pigs among them. Meanwhile, in the piedmont and upstate, where there weren't many if any at all, turks and deer were extinct and couldn't bounce back without restocking.

    Man wiped out deer and turkeys in the upstate.

    and man has aided in the hog population growth outside their historic range.

    But blame the pig.
