Hunting FERAL HOGS with Thermal Scopes... - Horn Swamp Hunting

Спорт

KILL COUNT: 32 hogs, 1 coyote
A collection of clips from our night hunts with Pulsar thermal scopes. We work to beat back the invasion of feral pigs into southern Alabama. These invasive creatures destroy land, eat crops, and endanger the survival of native species. While our method may never fully eradicate the population of wild hogs in the area, it can prevent further increase of populations and thus reduce the negative effects caused by them.

    I like your strategy. If you just wing ‘em first, then it makes it easier to shoot them 5 or 6 times before they die. Eventually. Good thinking!

    From the outset your aim and therefore shot placement was consistently low in the various clips causing most hogs to suffer and run unnecessarily and also suggesting this is your usual M.O. As a hunter and pest controller myself, I am curious why you would allow this to continue and point out that it has prevented me from subscribing to what otherwise is a well presented video.

    I don’t think I could do any better on the running ones never shot at a moving target but the ones standing still I could have put their eyes out if I wanted too!

    Sorry, the sound on the scope that we used for most of the clips wasn’t working. We’ll have it fixed for next time.

    You know you can zoom right?

    Yes, but in most cases it’s not worth the trouble. These scopes make it difficult to quickly zoom.

    I use a Trail XP50 as well. If you think zooming is not worth it....The PIP takes some getting used to but it works better for those far away shots that are mid way into the shooting.

    The PIP and zoom are really useful shooting at long range, but we try to get very close to the targets, where those features aren’t as helpful. You will see some long distance shots after the pig has run a ways, but not enough to need the PIP. I do see where you’re coming from though. I appreciate someone who is willing to have a conversation, rather than just leaving a hate comment and moving on. All the best to you!

    I can tell this is being done with a 6.5 Grendel,judging by that coyote taking a direct hit and running well over a hundred yards and slamming into the fence line,still alive and still running of course.The pigs faired about the same with the exception of a couple of kills that only required one shot.The pigs were taking multiple shots and just kept running like nothing was going on. I've seen this so many times from the 6.5 Grendel I've stopped counting the videos.I am very much in favor of killing these hogs as much as anyone else,but they must be clean one shot kills so the animals not suffering,that's the only problem I have with this video and all the other ones I've watched like this video,that are currently using the piss-poor excuse for a rifle caliber 6.5 Grendel.The 7.62 X51 is cheaper to shoot and far more powerful,one shot kills are the order of the day every time you pull the trigger on a .308 Winchester.
