I dont claim to know ANYTHING about hog hunting with dogs. But I do know the differnce between NightVision hunting and Trapping. As I said I LOVE NV hunting but 2 of us my only kill 6 or 7 pigs on a good nite. Trapping may yeild 9 to 19 pigs a night for us. YOU are right about the to each his own part. If you lease and enjoy hunting hogs with dogs then more power to you! But MY arguement would be that trapping is more effective. Basicly you can come out one day bait trap, come back in one week check camera, then come back latter climb a tree, watch trap with Night Vision ,then hit the remote and get the whole sounder group of hogs! My question would be can you catch 19 hogs in one day?
