    SCI Auction hunts

    I agree the local chapter is a good way to go. A lot of times the local chapter knows the Outfitter, and has had experience with them. Also, if you are successful you can get spot on advice on equipment, clothing etc., of the hunt. Best of all you can ask good questions, of the hunt in general...

    Trophy shipping

    I also had Hunter Int. receive my shipment of trophies. My tax. Here had me ship it directly to the tannery. It worked out great and because I had a pig it also solved the USDA receiving problem!

    Cost of Shipping Trophies

    I don't think it makes a lot of difference, but I was advised that it was better for the entry inspection if it was in a separate crate.

    Cost of Shipping Trophies

    Yes it does pertain to "any" pig parts. You have no idea how hard it is, I would take along duct tape, wrap your trigger fingers with enough that you can't get it into the trigger guard. That might not even be enough!! What an experience!!
