    I know a guy who has been on safari 5 times with a bushpig on the list. He still hasn't gotten his bushpig!

    Graybird,
    I think that he needs to hunt with the right people and it will happen. It takes a little bit of effort to get the bait station going, but once you have them on a schedule and coming in, its pork ribs! I'm heading out tomorrow to set up new station. Should be fun.

    Best Regards

    Possibly, but I think it has been more piss poor luck than anything.

    Graybird, you are 100 percent correct. You need a whole lot of luck to bag one, and more. I am happy to say that we found some big tracks all around the bait station today. The pigs were there last night, so we have put up a game camera just to see what has been moving around. The type of tracks that make me want to put the .30 cal back and take something bigger....

    Will post some pics as soon as I have them.

    Best Regards
