[QUOTE="C-Tex1836, post: 3026885, member: 129040"] So I have two stands that I hunt. One is in the wide open between a patch of thick woods which this feeder pictured is in, and a large open field where my box blind is about 65 yards from one feeder and 105 to another. The other stand is this feeder in the picture which is in a thick patch of woods. The only way to hunt it, is a tree stand or a ground blind. The furthest I could be away is about 40 yards as the woods are so dense. As far as access goes, if I have a south wind which we do predominantly, I can sneak in undetected from the north as he comes from the south the majority of the time. The one in the woods is located to where I have to come from the north as well. This is due to neighbors to the south, east, and west. I have also built a figure six trap as pictured above. It is a good trap and does work. You'd be surprised to see a 250lb boar clear the 4 foot hog panel… I didn't think it was possible until it happened… I put out some more crushed sugar beets and crushed acorns today to see what he does. Ive been working on getting rid of our hog problem the last couple of years. Our neighbors have been doing the same thing. I used to have two sounders coming in both with numbers in the 30-40 range. Due to trapping and blind hunting, we have knocked the population down to 4 pigs. This won't last long tho…. All it's gonna take is a pregnant sow and here we go again.
