You bet. I shoot any hog I see on sight. I kill around a dozen each year.
If I'm deer hunting and see a hog, then I'm hog hunting. If I'm deer hunting and see a coyote, then I'm coyote hunting. If you don't do something about the hogs and the coyotes you won't have many deer left around to hunt.
P.S. - They are good to eat, but you can't make bacon out of the hogs around here. Not enough fat. Not even close.
