texas30cal Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 Here are a few pics my customers took on their hunts over the last week. They got 21 sat before last then 8 mon, 5 Friday, 8 sat and 4 on Sunday. They absolutely love it, all caught with dogs, and I put the machines back together after the hunts:).

texas30cal Posted January 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 I'm not sure why the second pic turned sideways, or why the third and last turned upside down. If someone wouldn't mind fixing it I would really appreciate it. The pic of the scale is the weight of the one in the third pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmackc Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 So what are they doing with the hogs, caught live? take them to a meat processor ? or pen them and corn feed them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texas30cal Posted January 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) It sounds like a hell of a good time, I have a open invitation to go but haven't been able to. They hunt with one of the girls that was on the American hoggers show:))). Yes all are caught live, sometimes they split them with the landowner if he wants. The rest get sold and sent overseas for meat ( prob sent back here as domesticated pork). I have a good friend who works a a nearby prison, they are on the brazos river and the neighbor to the prison had to make a choice, get rid of the cows or the hogs. They brought in a helicopter and shot over 400 hogs from it two weekends in a row! It's a BAD problem here.

mrmackc Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) What county in Texas? In Comanche County we have problems with hogs in watermelon patches and pecan orchards. I like to shoot them from a Gator or Mule. Edited January 13, 2016 by mrmackc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definately not the warehouse raised prices you see at Costco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, my guess is that when mooselimbs start demanding Germans eat made from turkey pork-substitues, they will have awakened a sleeping giant.

mrmackc Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) We ate in a Crackerbarrel in Killeene Texas, today, near Fort Hood ,you know that is where we had a "workplace shooting" by an Army Muslim shrink and they had pork, ham, pork chops, bacon, on the menu and antique PORK signs all over the walls. Saw a lot of short hair, and shaved heads, old retired Army farts, several from the Nam era (long white haired dudes). But would you believe not a muslin sheet head or sheet wrapped female person at all. Edited January 14, 2016 by mrmackc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmackc Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) maybe the Mountain Oysters will grow hair on your chest? I wonder how many generations of hogs these are since they were domestic hogs?It looks like some of these balls would fit on Washes new fangled automatic meat smoker?Maybe you would need to soak them in a pan of salt water for a couple of days before putting them on the smoker Edited February 29, 2016 by mrmackc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmackc Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 That sounds like hogs that are free to roam really adapt to their new habitat and new environment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmackc Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 Mrmac....ill put em the smoker...but you gotta take off the hair Wash well Wash, I have watched my dad and locals where I was raised harvest mountain oysters from young hogs and cook them up when they were fresh and as I remember they were delishous. There are not any hair on them . Just open the ballbag lenghwise, pull them out clip off the cord and toss them in a bucket of water, slop on some strong tar like ointment on the wound , let the pig loose in the pig pen and I suppose he tells hls litter mates about his operation.
