How should I hunt?
I went on my first hog hunt last summer and it was...amazing.
Now I am going back for round two and was wondering what your suggestions would be for the hunt. The basic set up is like this. I go with a guide who can drop me in a stand early and if I am unsuccessful by noon they will bring out the dogs. Last year I went with the dogs from the get go. I will be flying to Florida from the north east. That means I won't bring a gun, I would at best bring a bow (which I have never hunted with). Or I can rent a gun. So what would you do? Bow, gun from the stand, gun with dogs, or....the knife? I would love to hear your feedback on which you would prefer and why. Thanks in advance. |

I have yet to stick one with a knife, but I definately would prefer to do it that way than any other way. Actuallyfinishing the hunt up close and personal withmy hands seems to be a pretty neat idea to me.

Just curious, when you say hunting with a knife you mean dispatching the hog while the dogs have him caught don't you? Lol, I have this mental picture of sitting in a tree and dropping down on one and stabbing for all your worth.:D

Obviously you are unfamiliar with my ninja skills. Actually, I only do that when I 'm really hungry.
I thinking going to try and go from the stand and then see how I feel. If I am successful and I want more then I'll head after it with a knife, and you are right, many many dogs. If I am unsuccessful in the stand then I'll just tuck my tail and do dogs and guns. Now I'm getting excited. |

How about the spear. No dogs. Just caveman style.

do it with a knife done it lots of time its a good rush just make sure the dogs have the hog first, can get really ugly if they dont, good luck

I use a bow exclusively for everything. To me it takes more skill and a lot more patience. Gun hunting to me is like going to the meat market. :D

Thanks for everyone's responses. I will tell you what the final verdict is once I head down there and I will definitely post a photo of the hunt.
Thanks again everyone, and keep the input coming. |
