pig hunts at Exotic Island Hunts

[Keith4001r]

After yesterday, I think I need to get better at shooting first! Though a lung shot I could manage, but I REALLY need to get over this flinching thing. I don't think I can just breath and relax when there's a pig I want to bring down and I have 1 second to get the shot off. Maybe if a steady stream of slow moving foxes would start showing up in the poultry yard area, 1 after another, I could get some real practice in, and if I can hit a fox's much small vitals area, a pig wouldn't be so bad...

Keith on here has a dandy .357 with a red dot scope, but we couldn't get the dang thing sighted in right.

We got the .357 squared away. A mounting screw came loose. It's now, to quote Ms. Mona Lisa Vito, from My Cousin Vinnie, "Dead on, balls accurate". The offer is still there. I may have a .44Mag Super Redhawk by the time you go, so that may be available, too. As for the flinching, PM sent.

why wait, they are NOT considered game by the PGC and are actually considered a nuisance animal, which means that you can kill em when you see em, all year long, no license required.

Is there a webpage with a list of these "nuisance animals"?

YOU CANNOT LEAGALLY KILL PIGS IN PA ANY MORE.

I believe you are referring to wild feral pigs. I believe the OP is about a hunting preserve. Two different situations.

Be safe.

Yes this is a hunting preserve place were they release the animals on this island, I am told they also have sheep and goats there too, the sheep being corsican/ mouflon mixes mainly I think, but they can probably get 4 horned rams and Texas Dall and all that too. It would be kinda neat to stalk one of the sheep around, they are skittery and I think they get left on the island to get more feral too. These sheep aren't very big btw, they look like they don't weigh more than 150 pounds on the hoof.

Wild animals that can be hunted year round in PA are groundhogs,coyotes, skunks, possums, and weasels. Some people like to shoot barn pigeons too, they are unprotected, as are european starlings and english sparrows. For real fun, you could shoot barn rats at night. LOL some folks shoot feral cats too.

thought you could blast crows year round also?

And of course Deer in Red Tag areas

anyone know any Red Tag areas in the Monroe County region?

You can kill pigs at will.

Apparantly someone sued the GC about the killing of the pigs, and as a result the GC had to list them as a protected animal. But in May, by special order, the protection was lifted.

Look at the GC's website.

Anybody know what the story is with the lawsuit? Why would you want them protected?
