Choppers are very effective in many parts of the state but they will never get every hog, just like traps won't, nor will dogs. And they have their draw backs just like any other method. I think that most land owners understand that and I don't see why it should be a competition. If a land owner wants the most effective means of control, they will implement all three methods. And yes, I have run properties that get flown. And yes, we do catch pigs after the shooting is done. Maybe if we would not consider it a competition, and worked with the helo pilots, they would express the same opinion to the land owners they fly for, helping us get our foot in the door.
PS: Unless you get motion sickness or are afraid of heights, there is not much more fun than zipping around in a little 22 size chopper with a case of #4 or 0 buck shot and mowing down sounders. Fasten your seat belts boys, it is going to be a RIDE!
