Pigs have great hearing and tend to use the dark of night to move around...you need cover, water and food to set up the trap to get your pig...
World's most popular community & resource for hunting in Africa since 2007
Was shocked at the animal on my list

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

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
