For years, I played sports with my friends in the park. However, after doing the same things day after day, I started trying to figure out different ways to keep things interesting. I was able to find a really inspiring group that did a wide range of different recreational activities, including group running, motorbike racing, and even paragliding. We had a great time together, and I can honestly say they expanded my horizons. Check out this website for more information on enjoying different types of recreation with your friends or family. You won't believe how much of a difference a little adventure can make.
What You Take Away From A Wild Hog Hunt
Wild hog hunting is quite common in Alabama, Georgia, Texas, Florida, and some parts of Mississippi. If you want to join a hog hunt, you should visit one of these states and talk to the locals. There are guides there that will show you how to hunt a hog, where to look, and how to stay safe doing it because wild hogs have razor-sharp teeth and tusks that can rip you to shreds. When you hunt a hog, you take away a lot from this trip.
You Are Providing a Much-Needed Service
Wild hogs are actually considered pests where they roam. Southern pest control experts are frequently called to handle a wild hog problem. And because these animals are too dangerous for homeowners to handle on their own, it is left to pest control and hog hunters to fix the problem. When you ask to hunt hogs with a local guide, you are helping provide a much-needed service to that area.
You Can Definitely Eat What You Kill
Wild hogs are descendants of the animals that came over on European ships and accidentally got loose. Their populations boomed, because one sow can have several large litters of hoglets in a year. Because of their origins, these animals are entirely edible, but you do have to cook the meat thoroughly to avoid parasitic infections. If you take your hog to a game butcher's shop, the game butcher can process the hog meat to make it safer to eat.
If You Get a Prize Boar's Head, Taxidermists Will Stuff It for Your Wall
Wild male hogs, or boars, often develop large, vicious-looking tusks. If you manage to kill one that looks impressive, you can take the head to a local taxidermist's shop, and he/she will stuff it for you. Then you can take it home and put on your trophy wall.
You Will Get Hunting Stories Like Nothing Else You Have Experienced
Usually, only hunting predators results in the kind of terrifying stories you want to retell. Hunting foraging animals, cud-chewers, and/or small game does not leave you with much of a story to tell afterward. That is not the case with wild hogs. Wild hogs run in circles, run away from you, and yes, even charge you if you have made them mad enough. The hunting stories you will have after such a hunt will be worth telling friends and family.
