It's got to be difficult in keeping up with the numbers in each sounder, and so many places.
I can see it now.

These big boars are coming off of our new lease in Wilcox County. The funny part is all the locals kept telling us all the pigs are black around here. So far, 4 big blonde with black spots on the boars and the only sow killed was solid black..

Are these your personal traps. Or clients traps?

DW that is a good question. But you can't break it down along those lines. It is just not that simple.
In some cases, the client buys the trap but pays us to monitor them and do the catching.
In other cases, it is our equipment.
And in others, I have been loaning the electronics to potential clients so that they can see it in action. They are putting the cameras and other equipment on an existing corral trap and catching pigs like crazy. And as planned they send me a check for the equipment once they see it in action.
And yes, in some cases, we have clients buying the traps and completely doing their own thing. I do not count the pigs these clients catch. And in fact, I seldom hear about their catches unless they catch a bunch.
So, to answer your question as accurately as possible, I am only counting pigs that I am directly involved in catching.

Still have over a week to go and we have already had our best month ever. June of last year was the old record of 74. I so want to break 100 this month.
I have two setups that are smoking hot right now with pigs. One trap has 10+ hitting it and the other is crazy. Two nights ago a large sounder came in and last night a different large sounder came in. If I can get a handle on the number in each of the sounders I shouldn't have any problem knocking out another 25 to reach the 100 goal.
Guys and gals, if you have a pig problem and you want to do your best to knock a BIG dent in the population, you need to be trapping now. It is on fire.

I had two traps hammered last night. One had 18 and the other 23. I sure hope we can drop on them over the weekend. And we have set up two new traps this week. The pigs should start hitting those locations again after the rain and the scent has been removed. Heck, I am thinking 150 for the month maybe now! LOL
