   deer243 Very good points mate. I'm primarily a pot hunter, and like bringing home the bacon (well venison, I've only killed a handful of pigs...). But I love big antlers too. Like you, in some of...

   Pigs around here always taste real good. Lots of escapees from the past and releases from years ago have put good breeding stock in the wild. Ive noticed over the years the pigs taste better and...

   I agree not all pigs taste nice especially the big smelly bores that have been torn to pieces and stressed to the max by pig dogs before you get to finish them off. I have been lucky these last 7...

   Clearly if i have a choice i pick the animal that suits the best. ie if a hind and yearling i shoot the yearling and leave the hind. If two stags together, i shoot the crap one first. Certain areas,...

   Its not nessarily the only animal you see though (it doesnt guarantee going home empty handed) so why not be somewhat considerate to the next guy. You learn alot watching animals not just killing the...
