Manuel Bright+FollowI tried 4 hog methods in Texas last weekJust got back from an epic hog hunt and wanted to share what's been working for me this season! The beauty of hog hunting is having so many options to choose from. My go-to methods: 1️⃣ Spot & Stalk - Hit those feeding areas early morning with good glass. Once you spot them, patience is everything for that perfect shot opportunity. 2️⃣ Baiting - Corn and molasses work like magic (where legal). Set up downwind and wait for them to come to you. 3️⃣ Stand/Blind Hunting - Found fresh hog sign? Set up nearby and let them come to you. Requires serious patience but pays off big time. 4️⃣ Dog Hunting - Training a hog dog is serious commitment, but nothing beats having a skilled pup track and corner these smart animals. Curious what method you swear by—or rotate between? #hunting #HogHunting #HuntingTips110Share
Manuel Bright+FollowI tried every hog hunting method this year 🐗After trying everything from blinds to baiting this past year, figured I'd share what's been working for me and what hasn't. 1️⃣ Spot and stalk in open areas - good binos are crucial for glassing before moving in 2️⃣ Corn baiting brings multiple hogs where it's legal, but they get wise fast 3️⃣ Stand hunting near wallows requires serious patience but produces consistently 4️⃣ Really considering hog dogs after seeing what my buddy's trained pack can do Seems like each method has its place depending on terrain and situation. What method has worked best for you? #hunting #hoghunting #wildboar #huntingdogs225Share
lolson+FollowHog behavior tips: hunt smarter, not harder 🐗Noticed some patterns while tracking hogs lately—figured I’d share. Sows and piglets usually move in groups (sounders), but those big solo roamers? Might be a mature boar worth tracking. Makes a difference when deciding how to set up. Anyone else noticed this in their hunts? #hunting #HogHunting #WildBoar #HuntingTips #SounderStrategy80Share
tyler79+FollowWild Hog Hunters: What's your weapon?🐗Been chasing hogs for 5 years now and learned the hard way that these things are built like tanks. Thick skin, solid muscle - your gear choice really matters. Currently running a .308 for most situations, but met some guys who swear by Glocks for close encounters. Bow hunters definitely need high-penetration broadheads - learned that after losing a few wounded hogs early on. Night hunting changed everything once they went nocturnal during summer heat. Thermal scope was expensive but worth it. What's your go-to setup for hogs? Rifle, bow, or pistol crew? #hunting #WildBoarHunting #HogHunting #NightHunt #HuntingGear90163Share
lolson+FollowNight Hog Hunt: My Essential Gear List 🌙Just wrapped up another successful night hunt! Here's what I've learned about gearing up for nocturnal hog hunting: 1️⃣ Night Vision & Thermals: Spot those hogs in the dark! Thermals for heat, night vision for light. 2️⃣ Sound Suppression: Keep it quiet with suppressors to avoid spooking your prey. 3️⃣ Hog Lights: Use red or green lights sparingly to stay stealthy. 4️⃣ Right Clothing: Lightweight, moisture-wicking, and protective gear is a must. Also—check your state’s laws first! Happy hunting! 🐗 #hunting #nighthunting #hoghunting #OutdoorGear40Share
lolson+FollowWhy My Hog Hunts Keep Failing 😤Turns out feral hogs have INSANE noses! Been getting busted constantly until I learned these stealth tactics: ✅ Always check wind direction ✅ Scent-free everything (gear, soaps, clothes) ✅ Walk quietly - avoid crunchy leaves/branches ✅ Tree stands work great (but scout first!) Trail cams are your best friend for finding fresh pig signs before committing to a spot. #hunting #hoghunting #stealthhunting #huntingtips #nighthunting81Share
Manuel Bright+FollowWhere Do Hogs Hide After Dark? 🌒Pigs LOVE hanging around dams at night! Even dried creek beds work - they sleep in that cool sand all day. My best success comes from scouting tracks and rooting signs first, then checking crop fields (wheat, canola, soy) and fence lines on farm land. Pro tip: they rarely venture far from water sources!

lolson+FollowWild hog meat tastes gamey to anyone else? 🐗Do y'all eat the hogs you hunt? Mine always taste weird and a little gamey. Am I doing something wrong? #hunting #hoghunting #wildgame #gamemeat2453Share
