    Default Do hogs really scare deer off ?


    this series of photos suggests YES real bad as the momma doe was moving along quickly and the poor little fawn with her was in the air a bunch going several directions just a minute before a few oinkers rolled in .

    we recently installed walkway led nightlights on the feeder legs and will very likely do some night hunting soon . I have shown several folks how to hunt them at night really cheap and to be sure 3 dollars worth of led dollar store lights duct taped to the feeder legs is a nice program on a budget .
    stay tuned and maybe this weekend if the heat don't ruin it for us we will go play night stalker on them . I know its supposed to hit 100 plus though and to be sure even after dark that's mighty warm weather to try to hunt in .

    Yes they will and have basically ruined my hunting grounds last year & this year. The deer are still around but will not feed together and the hogs are destroying the land.

    I tried to shoot as many as possible last year but it's tough when the place I have is bow hunt only. I just picked up a new, larger trap to try to eliminate more at 1 time and hopefully it will work. Should be setting up the trap this weekend & hope to start piling them up. With a problem as large as yours a large corral trap may be best to eliminate as many as possible at 1 time. You can put a continuous catch door on it & more and more will enter. Set it up in a shady location & put a water tub in there if you can't get to it daily to check it then they should be able to survive for a few days even when locked in the corral.

    The finest gift you can give to any fisherman is to put a good fish back, and who knows if the fish that you caught isn't someone else's gift to you?"

    I have seen deer in a field and the hogs came in and the deer left like a flushed covey of quail.

    yes I have seen similar myself , deer for sure spook when hogs come , they seem to be less afraid of coyotes than hogs from what I have observed in the past .

    Agree they don't eat together But deer don't leave lease..Kinda just avoid.....Deer numbers are affected though cause during Fawn birth few weeks.When Mom puts fawn down and says don't move...Hogs chow down...after a few weeks There able to Run and get away...

    With the Corral trap -- what do you do with 15 to 20 Hogs all over 100 lbs to 500 pounds like what I am dealing with

    Eat what what you want , give the rest to needy or let the buzzards eat the rest. They don’t last long
