I mentioned in my other thread that I had been hunting that boar for several months, and he, like most of the hogs on/around my place, has been moving almost completely at night. I have been toying for a while about buying a night vision scope, but I just can't justify dropping $2K(+/-) just to hunt hogs.
I had a brain storm a few weeks ago about using some kind of light source over my corn pile. I found a solar powered motion sensing security light. I bought one and installed it (with a red lense) over my game camera to monitor the hogs reaction to the light, and they basically didn't react at all.
Last night, I sat in my ladder deer stand about 100 yards from the light. I actually heard the boar coming and was ready when the light came on, and you know the rest of the story. Dead pig.
I spent $100 on the security light versus a couple of grand for a decent night vision scope.
I was going to email you but you dont list on so here is a question for you. What kind and size
solar powered unit did you get? Most of the ones I see dont put out that much light.
Thanks.
