I don’t want to read through all this, so I may ask questions already answered.

1. What kind of traps were being used?
2. Were catching parts of groups or the whole sounder?
3. Are you open to dogging?
4. Do your neighbors participate in the hog “management” process?


To be successful you have to use every tool in the toolbox, not just one or two. Trapping, shooting, and dogging all used together with a plan with neighbors and you can have truly significant impacts on hog numbers.
