I sure miss hunting down there! My son killed his first hog just outside of Camden years ago. I'm just too old to make the drive now. Had some great times there and we've followed the Hornswamp for years.
What was the estimated distance on the group slaughter? Can you get multiple hogs with a light or does the use of darkness and the thermal create more multiple opportunities due to confused piggies?
I stay moving. I never set up and wait. I check farmland and pasture land from the truck, stopping at times to walk up for a better view. I stalk some hardwoods and big pine plantations. I cover a lot of ground some nights and I never sit still.
Ugh these videos make me sick. Not because I'm some kind of liberal. But because I can't afford to hunt like this. I have ample gun and a suppressor but no thermal or land rights.
