Here's my next target--and if he's stupid enough to hang around until daylight, I don't think he will last too long.



And, which one do I shoot first?

we call those calico's, and I would put a pile of corn in a tight pile and have a shotgun with #4's or so and as open a choke as possible on your trash pandas.

Time for "coon daggers" and cat food! If I get fed up and shoot the coons the pigs don't show!

I have a "secret" remedy for the 'coons.

Which one do you shoot first?
The edible variety, then you can get rid of the rest without scaring away a stack of meals.
Unless you like eating the smaller ones...

Shoot the big sows first. Game warden’s advice is to shoot them first but don’t let the rest of them get away.

Wonderful coloured pig! I would tan that hide for the floor for sure!

As for the racoons .......

Getting rid of the coons.

Well help your ground nesting birds a lot.

Headed out tonight for another try. This will be the 4th time with no success.

Twice they sneaked up on me from upwind and I didn't detect them until they were too close and all I got to do was watch them walk away. Sat until about 11 then got up to go to the camera to swap cards. Got about halfway there and scanned a boar about 25 yds down the trail. Swapped the hand-held for the rifle, settled in, triggered, and away he went. No blood, and walked the property to the north fence while scanning and no carcass. Back to the range to check zero. This stuff is getting old!
