I barr just about every boar we catch, in one particular part of the swamp I’ve barred a pile of boars and caught quite a few back, one had about 3 years of growing and was around 125 when he was cut and was 305 the second time we caught him, caught another the next summer in there that had 3 or 4 years in between and hadn’t really changed at all, caught another in there that was about 50 lbs when he was cut and in 18 months he had grown to 256 but was just about all pearl white fat, I caught the last one 4 years ago and have been using his fat to mix in our deer sausage since then, I just rendered the last 10 lbs down into lard and have been giving the dogs some every day, funny how the same group of hogs on the same exact diet and food source all grew at different rates, most of the hunters around here except for my group of friends kill everything and blame their dogs sub par performance on “educated” hogs, very few things I enjoy more than catching a good swamp acorn fed fat boar hog for the freezer, especially if it’s one I’ve changed...
