    Damn nice game trail!

    I didn't realize that you were putting a 'roof' on it too. why bother? Pigs can't jump.

    Is that corn by the door?

    Wild pigs can jump, and they can climb.

    Yeah. Corn, pig wild, and strawberry mix.

    If the cage has any corner the pig will use that corner to climb. Mine has 2 corners by the door, and the trap is only 3 foot tall. A pig could jump 3 foot easy.

    HOG ROAST!!!

    Trap works well. Very nice pig. Congrats on getting the wife to butcher. Mine wouldn't get involved until it was ready to package, I don't think. Nice dog and chickens BTW.

    .22?

    Yeah, .22lr. Marlin model 60. The first shot did it, but I wanted to end it as fast as possible.

    We actually split the back bone in half, and then cut it into steaks. Wife blackened them tonight, it was delicious.

    The wife needed more experience in butchering. She can handle rabbits by herself, but never did a deer or hog. Meant to get her to do one of the deer I shot this year, but weather sucked each time so I just knocked it out as fast as I could.
