Probably not many regarding wild pig but the principles are still relevant.
    I've done a few goats and a sheep. But I see your point.

    That's the plan! They're prices are really good too!

    Field dressing and getting air through it would be best.
    What if you get a cracking young boar or maiden sow of 60-70 lb ? It would be sacrilege to sausage the lot, and I would recommend that you be banned from the forum and publicly flogged if you did that right before Xmas when some choice roasts could be handy or even a wild pork ham which is always much better than the farmed stuff.

    Have you been taught how to cleanly gut ??? It is important to know what you are doing. In the past a lot of blokes were trained at the freezing works and then they taught their mates. This doesn't happen much now so put your hand up, there are plenty of experienced blokes on the forum who would be pleased to help if asked.
    I’m keen for any advice on gutting in the field, I have done hundreds of sheep on my parent farm and have cleaned a few dear the same way when I have had time and a tree to hang it in but never done a pig. Any advice would be greatfully excepted. Cheers James.

    True!

    Depends on how many we get. At this stage I'd rather just have some wild pork to eat. If the ham is relatively easy to do I'll get one.

    My gutting experience is limited but I've been taught the basics and clean way. I just need to gut some more so I can do it fast.

    I'd suggest a spare long knife for the butt hole. So no contamination and easier to cut around.

    Pushing the guts in while you cut the belly is a good tip.

    Cable tie the butt hole so no poo comes out.

    Cable ties or rubber bands need more love. Just don't leave them on the hill or the plastic police/whales will haunt you for ever.

    Good heavens no. It annoys me to see a show lot of rubbish near the hits I frequent.
