South Ga.
Things must have changed In Georgia since 88-92. I was in Savannah...did a lot of hunting at Fort Stewart. Overloaded with hogs....not sure about the running dogs on the base but....the surrounding area maybe..if your within 1 1/2 hours of there....I can't imagine it would have changes that much...should be worth checking out. |

Fort Stewart, yep no dogs. But plenty of hogs. Not too far away further south. More around Folkston. Im not sayin there aint good places to hunt in South Ga, Just not anywhere within a 45min Drive that "I" have permission to hunt. Only Hogs around my house are ones that got out the pen. Townsend wma near Fort Stewart has Started allowing hog hunting with dogs, only at certain times. be just a matter of time before its completly open. I've cut wood on the bombin range in townsend and it def has a good population. Only 1 problem, how many people like to drive 2 hours, to hunt for a couple of hours?? Gas, Tires, Time, more chance to get caught transporting live hog. I would personally just like a few hogs on some leased land 30 mins from the house. I guess you cant have your cake and eat it too.  |

Jus give us some time, I almost ran one to Louisiana a couple weeks ago  All u need is a large boar and a fertal sow and in one year u will have plenty to shake a stick at lol. If I'm not mistaken they can have around three or four litters a year and a litter varies with the amount of tame pig in the farel hogs blood. Tame pigs have more per litter then a wild/feral hog. |

I use to have the same luck but try getting you a Poland china boar and mixing in your blood it will increase your litter size I try to raise woods savvy hogs. I think the domestic mixed in would go pretty quick in the wild. I raised a bunch of mule footed hogs and turned them out to never see again!  It is working well cause I caught a sow yesterday I turned out 2 years ago about doubled in size and had some pretty blue and colored up piglets. |

Wow that sucks cajun, i was figuring on 6 piglets per sow, and them all living lol. I guess i can hang that up. pretty sure if i remember right, we use to give piglets iron shots, as well as clippin teeth and tail in vet class. not 100% tho. What you reckon causes em to die so early?
Shotgun- You have brought a very good argument to the table. And I do respect your stand and advice. I dont hunt turkey or deer at all(never enjoyed chasin billy goats and chickens) The food plot arguement is out, these hogs will be turned out in riverbottoms and sandhills. Its either flooded and wet, or too sandy. In Southern Ga we dont have the luxery of Food plots. Least not my parts. Now the feeder on the other hand yes, hogs will prolly enjoy their yella acorns. My argument is they enjoy shootin the hogs as much as i like catchin em. And they sure aint trophy huntin around here lol.
Now the leased land on the other hand is a good point. If i leave the lease, Rayonier(timber harvesting, lumber mills, wood procurement etc...) might and a big might be worried over a couple thousand acres with some hogs on it. More than likely if I leave, they will replace me with another hunter. But as a Christian I dont want to ruin my Testimony all because I turned out some hogs and became a nuisence to others. So you've givin me alot to think on. Thanks!
you must be talkin domestic hogs. we only gave the B12 if the pigs were on concrete...only reason i guess, was an old timer told us that if they were on dirt they didint need it. And we clipped teeth, tails and nuts at 3 days old |

Yeah i was talkin about domestic. Mighta Been B12, I knew it was somethin couldn't remember and that was on concrete too. I didnt know if it would apply to feral too or not. Im def gonna cut tails tho, that way i can distinguish between ones i turn out and wild. (if i decide to do it lol)
I agree with ya crackae11, And them some fit lookin hogs. how old are they? My guess, 1yr?
