good and bad

Post by gizmo1 » Wed Apr 18, 2012 8:36 pm

Well sorry no pics yet but we had the wildlife biologist out tuesday on the new ranch. good news and bad news. good news is i have a ton of deer. which i knew but not to the extent that it is. we will get a TON of deer tags for muley does. we put a 5 1/2 year minimum on whitetail bucks and a 6 1/2 age minimum on muley bucks and will only take 3 bucks a year. turkey population is great also. bad news- i am infested with pigs. we have been seeing any where from 40 to 200 a day!!!!!!! we are killing them as fast as we can but it is going to be a long process. out of the 176 acres of wheat fields we have all of it was a total loss due to hog damage. the ranch is 740 acres and you cant walk 10 feet in any direction without hitting a hog root.

I haven't ever been around hogs, but I understand they can be a real problem. It sounds like you have a great piece of property.

Good to hear about the wanted game. I bet that if you look around you will be able to find plenty of help with your hog problem.

Heck if it wasn't so far I would help myself. LOL

Yea if it was closer a lot of us would be happy to help you. :)

But sounds like the GOOD far outweighs the bad to me. Little slice of Heaven is what it sounds like.

Man, I used to LOVE to hunt those things when I was stationed in CA! Of course, they weren't destroying my own land either!
