Headed down to Ft Stewart for a week of pig hunting. A first for me with traditional gear. Boy was it a fun trip. 100% spot a stalk. But actually more like walk your butt off till to finally luck into a few hogs. Weather was very cold and the hogs seemed to lay up in the thick cover till early afternoon when we seemed to get into them the most. We ended up with 4 gigs shot and recovered and a fews that were hit and lost. All I can say is that pig hunting seems to be made for traditional gear. Can't wait to go back.

I know that guy in the first pic. Sound like you guys had a blast, congrats.
That's awesome!
Way to go on the hogs! I got my first one about a month ago and it is fun with traditional gear.
Some day I gotta do this looks to be a blast!!
Excellent.
Nice!
Well worth the 9 hour drive from MD. Weather could have been a little more cooperative but that's hunting. This will be an anual event for me that's for sure.

Get up with me at the Balti Bowmans and Ill pass on a few tips.
looks like a great trip.
Congrats! I love pig hunting
Does Ft Stewart still require a shooting test prior to hunting? If so, how did you schedule it to work with your travel?
Yes they still require a skill test. We called ahead and scheduled for when we arrived.
Where can we get info on how to get in there to hunt.
Sounds like a great time for sure.
Awesome!
Way to get it done! We have started to hammer them as well. I LOVE sticking those pigs.

Looks Like a Great Time.
Congrats on your Hogs~!!
Great job! I'll bet that was fun.Congrats.
Good job. I was there yesterday with CJ. We both got into hogs late evening with no shots. I was a mile from the truck and had to pull off the ones I was on as they were headed away from the truck and I lost shooting light. Will be back tomorrow Lord willing.We both saw snakes as well with the warm afternoon.RC
:clapper:
Nice hogs.

We sure did not have to worry about snakes while we were there. I think 20's kind of keeps them in tight, I was a little overwhelmed at how cold it got at night there. I was alos amazed at how big some of those units can be. A couple times I wondered what we would do if we got one down that far from the truck. F5 held some hogs when we were down there. Next time I get down there you need to give me a few more pointers finding them. I put in a lot of miles trying to locate them. Once I did it was then a challange keeping on them. Those little buggiers love to run around. It was alos very different stalkin in on them compared to Whitetails.
nice pigs yummmmmm pork ribs and doing the yards is all about having fun :thumbsup:
