[QUOTE="Brett Bracken, post: 2135122, member: 106232"] Blancoalex, Please don't take offense, but I really do believe you are over thinking this. As I mentioned in the other thread....hog hunting is not rocket science. Set a feeder up and don't worry about it; shoot what comes in. If you have a good hog population there are always going to be hogs to shoot at. You may spook one group off, but there's always another group to replace it; and yes....sometimes you can have the same group show up after taking one of their members out. I took out a group of 6 small sows shooting one at a time over about 3 weekends. Just like people....there are smart hogs and stupid hogs. BTW.....they just got finished flying the properties around my ranch last week shooting 1546 hogs and 93 coyotes over a 3 day period. Friday was their last day. Whadaya know....I had hogs at all my feeders and long range bait holes Friday night and Saturday night. And the coyotes were singing away. I'd also recommend you build or buy a timed feeder. I built my own out of 55 gallon drums with 3 legs. I highly recommend using Spin Cast solar powered feeder mechanisms; most reliable and long lasting mechanisms I've ever seen. [/QUOTE]
