yeah it sucks but it's getting pretty bad. hunting wasn't working and was actually contributing to the problem. hogs were turning up hundreds of miles from the nearest hog populations. if i had only won that lottery, i have my eye on 3100+ acres that we hunt on. hog sign has just started showing up the last few years but we haven't actually seen any hogs.

Yep, hog hunters sure can add to the problem. A few years ago here in Clarke County, a bunch of scofflaws were turning hogs loose left and right---and sometimes overhead, it seemed like. You couldn't walk 100 yards through the woods without stepping on a hog t#rd. One of my buddies killed a big sow with a tag still in her ear. That gang got broken up and our hog problems went way down---there are still hogs around, but nowhere near like they were. If every one of them died, it'd make me happy.
