We trapped hogs for 4 or 5 years on one of our properties in Hancock...Had a couple of welded portable type traps..Most of the time , we'd drop loop ropes into the traps and catch their back legs and tie the rope to the top, lifting the rear end up... Hogs aren't used to that !!!! Pretty soon their front ends would collapse, they'd be worn out... Then we'd drag them out, jump on 'em, and tie the front legs up !!!! WAY TOO MUCH FUN !!!! One guy to knock the pig down and hold the mouth shut , another to tie...My then 10yr. old loved tackling them, and he didn't even play football !!! We'd keep 'em in a holding pen for a couple of weeks, then put 'em on the smoker...But with the really big boars, we'd shoot 'em in the trap....And move the trap to another place, wouldn't catch any more where a big boar had been killed, some we just let go because they'd stink so bad, it would be weeks before another hog would get caught there...
