Eat. Only reason to kill 'em right now. Would leave them if I was trying to thin them out, but would try to give them away first.

Pic says it all!

keep a few, most get left.

I got one in the freezer just waiting for a day off to start cookin'!! Hope it tastes as good at that one does!!

eat what we want give away what we can and leave the rest

keep a few and leave the rest.

Mine gets released

Well I always keep one and once in a blue moon when friends asks for one ill give them one!

Others get left without blinking an eye!

eat what we can and leave the rest

Eat/freeze what I can and give the rest away, except the big nasty smelling ones. If someone wants those, they can come and get them.

A hog is about as useful as a feral dog, or cat. I have no qualms about shooting them and letting them lay. But, if I have room in the freezer, I will clean them.

I killed 2 this past Saturday night. I cleaned one and gave all of the meat away to other people. The other hog was gut shot and was split from neck to netherlands by the 300 Win. Mag. He sprayed his guts. It really was like a grenade went off inside that hog. I did not even attempt to deal with that mess. Someone else took it though so it was not wasted.

eat what i hunt

releasing feral hogs after capture is against the law, unless they are released into game preserves or game ranches that are licensed by the TAHC as a holding facility. thats why there are so many of them because of dumbazz people keep releasing them into areas where they arent. think before you say stupid comments. game wardens and TAHC monitor these sites and look for people blabbing about breaking the law.

I agree with you Trapper but tap the break buddy.

if you dont know the law thats your fault. when your your dealing with trapping and releasing wild animals it is your responsiblity to know the law just like you do for hunting or fishing. there is no exuse for not knowing the regualtions and laws.

I shoot mine in the guts and let them run off. Too much meat in the freezer most of the time.

leave em there, maybe skin 3 or 4 a year.

When I get one ( key word is when), I"ll eat it.

I think we are misunderstanding Altez... I was with him Saturday night and he put the smack-down on a stinky old boar (30-06 to the head). I don't think he was releasing anything other than the brain matter from between that pigs ears.

I don't even know the law concerning that, but we kill more barr hogs than necessary.

All above!

LOL calm down LoneTrapper. Maybe I should of been more specific. I hunt and release but with this boar I hid the evidence.

The little ones are the best to eat. They make great breakfast sausage.

any of you guys in the Austin, DrippingSprings ' marble falls area that want to donate, I sure would be happy to have one for the pit. i got 20 acres. all horse fenced, so even tough they are in the area ,,,,,I cant get one. and dont have access to hunt.
