I hunt whistlepigs in the meadow's around the house. Built an AR just for the task. Don't have much trouble with them spotting. We glass for them. The average shot is between 200 and 300 yards.

Mighty good eating to let go to the buzzards!

I had a big ole' plate of perch.

#1, turn the redbones loose #2, wait for the strike, then enjoy the chase #3, when they bay, turn the Bulldogs loose #4, When the Bulldogs get the pig under control, you can truss it, take it home, pen it up away from sows for about a month while feeding sweet feed, the taint will be...

It started Saturday morning when I found my best friend for the past 15 years dead. Rest in peace Sable, going to miss you. Friend gave me a sticker knife Friday, I dang near cut the tip of my finger off with it today. And finally, got my pneumonia and whooping cough vaccine this weekend...

This one is a sticker. It will replace the Old Hickory sticker I have been using for a long time. Now I just got to go pig hunting. Maybe it will cool down a bit before too long. I like the Oak Level Knives. This is my 5th one.

Does this count? Its the closest I have.

I use a Bad Boy Elite 60 on the farm and a Troy Bilt Mustang 42 at the second house. The first house gets a front steer tractor style. FWIW, the Mustang was bought for the first house. It has the smallest yard, but the yard is on a hill. I could not keep the zero turn straight, a rear wheel...

Congrats Dutch!

I have been confused with Sergeant Slaughter, the wrestler. If I were to show you a picture of my dad in his US Army days you could not tell him from Jim Neighbors / Gomer Pyle. And one we still get a laugh out of, back in our 20's the wife and I stopped at a burger joint. The server went...

We used to have boar season here. Russian, or Eurasian, depending on who you ask, brought in for sport. No more boar seasons or tags. I doubt there are any wild strain left. The Russian boar were broad of shoulder and narrow of hip and not much over . I have heard tales of huge boars but I have...

Where's the smoke ring?

Used to raise them, but about 10 years after Hurricane Hugo came through and let all our pigs out, we had enough running around that we did not need to anymore. Use redbones to bay them and pit bulls to catch them. Been keeping us in meat for a while now.

I use tractors for my meat birds. 8x12x2. I put up to 30 birds in each. My layers free ranged until recently. Coyotes have gotten bad here. I keep my layers in tractors now. 4x8 A frames. I keep a dozen ASA Browns 3 to each tractor and move the tractors aound my garden on a regular basis.

Heard about this forum from associates on another forum I enjoy. Came over for a look see and liked what I saw. Think I will like it here!

In line with my belief that the castle doctrine deters burglary. The rate in North Carolina is down to 721 per 100,000. I was reading your state statutes. They are similar to ours. You, as we are, are protected from civil and criminal prosecution if the deadly force use was clean. Still, the...

Easy enough to say until you have lost everything. In 2016, the latest year Alabama has released statistics on, there were 33,246 burglarys reported. While the numbers are decreasing, they are obviously not eliminated.

No home security does absolutely no good when you are away for a week and you come home to a burned out shell and everything you own except for what's with you is gone. Castle doctrine only works if you are home.

Probably overboard, but a result of a break in and arson that we were a victim of back in 1999. Doors and jambs are steel security doors, ground floor windows are resin. Motion sensor lights on the outside the house with cameras. The house itself has a full security system with motion, smoke...

I have not hunted rabbits for years. I do have a few gums set, just to keep the population in check. I have already taken about all I want too. I raise Florida Whites, would rather have rabbit than chicken, plus they are more economical to raise than meat chickens.
