[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 203517, member: 2736"] Stretch I live in south texas also and do about the same thing as you. If we want to eat them we go for 100lbs or less and the little pigs (10 to 30lbs) are great cooked whole on the pit as you said. If we want or see a skull mount then we go for a big tusker 300lbs +. To control the population (almost impossible) we take the big sows. and as you said some of them are still edible.and make great ground meat to add to your venision sausage. We head shoot all hogs except the big boars that we want to skull mount for obvious reasons and neck shoot them. During the summer mounth's most of the wild hogs have lots of parasites and are not kept for eating. In texas to control the deer population there is a program called LAMPS that the parks and wildlife department literally goes out and kills dozens of deer and buries them to prevent disease and they will tell you to shoot every hog you see because a wild hog can have 3 litters of 10 to 15 a year and they are normaly about 50% male and 50% female and start breading by 6 mounth's of age. So kill every one you see and you still wont hurt the population. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
