Well I finally got to look at the video....if you look on the news channels website, go to the videos section and search 'hog hunters' and it will come up. There are actually 2 videos about hog hunting, one that I saw said that sport hunting wasn't effective in TN and that was why the TWRA had to change it's approach to the 'problem'. I agree with them that it hasn't done much to change the hog population,...what they, as governmental agencies so often do, failed to tell, was that the hog season in TN was so short that it couldn't possibly be of any of any real use in the effort to reduce the population. I've live in AL but I've hunted in TN for about 35 years and this is not a surprise at all.....watch the video and tell me if you think the gentleman in the suit with TWRA has ever killed a big game animal in his life. The people on the board at TWRA will have to be unseated as soon as possible, for this one reason,....as most people in a position of power that answer to no one so often do,....they have forgotten that they work for the people of the state of Tennessee and they will be fired,....period!
