Hello! I am Brian. I am a retired zooarchaeologist and stay at home father who stays busy a few times a month in the pursuit of hogs - primarily up by Forestburg in Montague County, north Texas, but also at another spot close to the county seat there (Montague). Despite my best wishes to live there, I don't. I live about an hour away in Denton.
I consider myself to be an okay hunter, terrible tracker, and reasonable shooter. Most of the places I hunt are not very open and so my longest kill is only 170 yards, shortest is about 20, and most are in the 50-100 range. I have only been hunting since 2008.
I don't like feral hogs, but they keep coming in and tearing up my land, so I got involved with hunting them. While shooting big boars is really cool and make for the best photo opportunities, I personally consider sows, especially pregnant sows to be the most ideal targets.
