Default Georgia Hunter Bags 'Hogzilla'...guys check this out!

For all you guys wondering why you need to be more concerned about penetration on hog vs a deer....check this out!

This thing is an absolute beast!

There's also a video story on cnn.com, but I can't figure out how to post the link. That's worth a look too!

How the he11 did this guy move it after he shot it?

WOW.. that's a big hog. I'd need the White Rifle with a big conical for that one.. interesting story. Shame I'm on dial up .. videos are out of the question.

Or how did he hang it in a tree in the front yard.

how much weight do ya think the branch that's holding the rope will hold, giving the tree looks to be bout 24" in dia. from the video of the woman standing next to it in the beginging of the video....i measured myself and my girl friends shoulder width and came up with a measurement of 18", my girl said she was bigger then she is so i made a guess of 24" fer the tree's dia....how big of a dia. do ya think that branch is 7-8" dia if that, also the rope was pulled by the pickup truck off to the left to haul that pig up to that height also....that would put alot of stress on that branch 48"+ out from the trunk of the tree too.............bob

There was a deal similar to this, floating around a couple of years ago, that turned out to be a complete hoax.

Hogzilla was killed in Georgia and the other one above was larger than Hogzilla and killed in Okahumpka, FL. close to me!
