I got beat?? No way. I want a recount and if it don't come out right recount the votes again!! Power to the people. Every body look at your hanging chads. If I don't win I am going to hold my breath untill I turn blue One Man One vote!! Blatant raceism!! Voter discrimination!! (can...
Well no body has said it so I will. Hogs, deer and bear (maybe) there isn't a thing wrong with a 94 Winchester in 30-30. Or a Marlin.

There is a good thread going on the best now how about the flip side? We all know the taste of game depends a lot on how it is handled but some is just naturally better than others. There is some that, to me, is down right inedible unless you are starving to death. The ones that I rank...
Like Ray I don't hunt very far from home. The very few times I have been off my home grounds where there wasn't any way to get back to the house I stuck my old O3A3 in the baggage. It is still straight military configuration, you can't hurt it and it isn't fancy but it is tough as nails...
Sure and BeGorra bcat, I stand corrected. I'll just goose a Leprachan and whistle Rising of The Moon just for you andy yours. Erin go Bragh

bcat so now you are an English teacher??
My bad, poor word choice on my part.
You know what I mean any way. Durn it go by what I mean not by what I say!!

I believe I'd have to add bad area. Last year I read an article about a guy that killed a really big black bear in the town garbage dump. It was a big bear but in a garbage dump, Jeez Louise! I shot real nice white tail several years ago literally in my back yard. Rested the rifle on the bar...
Guess it happens every where. Read in the paper yesterday that the remains of 39 antelope were found out from Amarillo. Some shot some run over with vehicles. We don't have many of those things and something like that is a shame. No suspects either.

Some time back I had a friend out in far west Texas who raised goats. He also had a few antelope on the place. When talking about them the references was to goats (his) and government goats (antelope).

As is usual with any wild game young is better than old and female is better than male. How ever you decide to cook them the meat needs moisture. You can't use the usual pork recipes. Cook it like you would venison but I wouldn't try to fry it.

At the time I was too busy to be scared but later I shook for thirty minutes. I was chasing a drove of hogs through a swamp when the horse hit quick sand. Damn horse went sky winding nuts and managed to fall over backwards with me under him. I didn't think that thousand pounds of idiot would...
Duster I never have used either of them. Have a friend who uses a Mod 92 Winchester in 44-40 that works well. Not a powerfull as the 45/70 or the 444 by a long shot so they should do the trick easy.
As you know you don't worry about hogs unless you rile them. Long as they think they can get...
Any standard 150 to 180 grain load should work well. I've killed too many of them with a 22 not to think otherwise.

Depends on how I am hunting them. If I am going with enough dogs to hold the drove I use a 22 pistol. It doesn't spook them so much while they are worrying about the dogs. If there isn't enough dogs to hold then I use a Mini 14 because most likely it is running shots. If I am just hideing and...
Up from the tail top of the hips mid line of the back. Follow your nose and you will find it. Cut around it like you were going to scalp the thing and make a fair wide circle. Maybe 2 inches around. Wash off your knife good before you go to skinning and gutting.

Duster you sure should know what we are talking about. You are right on the corn deal too. Best way is to trap the durn thing and put it in a pen for a month and feed it good. It is still wild hog but it does sweeten up the meat doesn't it.

Thanks Tobey, You betchum Red Ryder I like liver. Standard question for me when I am helping friends clean game is "Do you want the heart and liver?" Would like to try bear but we run pretty few to the hill.

But if you do not choose to use rattlesnakes then you should at least make use of the meat. Mouse burgers are very tasty if you can find those little bitty buns.

Tobey how does bear liver compare to hog liver. Hog is better than anything else I have eaten but I've never eaten a bear liver.
