Curious how one that size eats with his jewels previously removed? We have limited ourselves to 100lb hogs for table fare, as the few larger ones we tried had a ‘unique’ flavor to them, even using an ice chest blood ‘removal’ process.

 

[Howie1968]

They eat like a big ole sow, no sting or strong odor

Great shot on the big porker.

Great job Howie. I'd need a loading dock to get one that big in the truck.

 

[Howie1968]

Good job Howie!

Great job Howie. I'd need a loading dock to get one that big in the truck.

if not for a friend i wouldnt have been able the hog was in the 250 class or so i imagine, im about a 265lber so its hard to judge as they are much more muscle than i am

 

[bluemule66]

Howie I'm glad its getting used. It hadn't been hunting in several years when I had it.

I’m a big fan of Howie’s Hog Killing threads. That .58 speaks with authority.

Howie,

Have you ever considered designing a tripod-style hoist that mounts in the bed of your truck, that would have a Warne electric winch attached to it? If mounted up by the cab: a pair of sturdy plastic ramps that lead from the ground to the truck's bed, and a smooth piece of thick plastic, like from a kiddie pool; would allow a hunter of any age to winch a big game animal into the bed of their truck without risk of hurting themselves.

Just my thoughts from a 66 year old that cannot do that anymore.

Nice pig!!! Love your T/C Big Boar .58's. If I could only own one rifle it would be a .58 caliber flintlock. It will kill anything in North America.

Wow, that is a boss hog. Congrats
