I set up a game cam on my folks place in mid June to see what kind of hog pics that I could get over this well used wallow.  My dad brought it home to me yesterday with 185 pics on it  Shocked.  Can't wait to see what kind of pics I can get once I have my feeders up and running.  I also thought it was funny that the wallow never went more then about two days without one of the several groups of hogs visiting it.

Yeah I am about to start trapping and barring as many boars as I can during deer season and then it will be "game on" come January through the spring.

Dang!!!!!! Grin  I bet you that was exciting to roll through that game cam!!   

Bayed Blue-- game cams are the best, we got six of em.  we use the the cheaper moultries, and they work great, we have had the flash go out on a few of them but keep the receipt give them a call and they send you a new one.  Service is great at moultrie.  We have had a few different other cameras and they all end up malfunctioning in some way or another.  but the service has not been as good with other brands.  Moultrie is the way to go.

As a side note, last Feb I was walking through the woods close to the area this camera is set up in and came across a sounder of hogs working the leaves over for acorns and there was a sigle white piglet with black spots that could not have been more then 3-5 pounds.  I believe that is her in these pics, she has grown ALOT in 6-7 months!!!  There are alot of different groups that work this property, hogs that we have seen and cought/released deeper into the property were not on any of these pictures.

Matt, they all look so FAT! Would be interesting to weigh the ones you get out of the trap to see how much more they weigh when you catch them again. Don't know really how you'd go about doing that though.

Nice hogs  :O)
