How About Some Wild Hog Hunting? - Outdoors - Hunting

In old times, wild hog hunting was seen as a symbol of bravery. Today, hunting hogs is probably one of the most adventurous hunting sports you can involve yourself in. Running through the woods chasing a huge wild pig with tusks is pretty fun, but it can also be dangerous if you do not know what you are doing. Hunting pigs is a good way to help rid the forest of the pests. Wild pigs do a lot of damage to the environment. They carry diseases that are dangerous for livestock and humans. They wallow in streams and rivers, polluting the water. Feral pigs are a nuisance, but they can sure be fun to hunt.

Your choice of Firearm depends on what kind of terrain where you plan to be hunting. Also the size of caliber you plan to use depends on the size of the pigs you are going to be shooting and at what distance. Hunting in the forest for wild pigs is completely different than hunting in open fields. A 30 caliber Winchester is good for close up range in shrubbery. A.44 Magnum is also not a bad choice for close range hunting of wild pigs. When you are up close and personal with a wild hog, you want to be familiar with your hunting Gun. So spend time getting to know your rifle before you go hunting. If you are new to hunting, you should do target practice and practice under pressure.

You can engage in this hunting pastime many places. In States like Mississippi, Minnesota, Georgia, and North Carolina, you will find numerous hunting spots where you will find wild hogs. You could also use the help of an outdoor adventures guide.

Hunting wild hogs does take a measure of bravery. They can be some of the most ferocious things you will ever hunt. They may not be the hardest animals to hunt, since they can be lured easily, but they will give you a thrill. Wild boars and hogs are fearless when up close and they are very strong. You had better be sure to bring it when you go wild hog hunting, because you know they will.
