    If you don't want to pay the fellow to hunt on his land, then don't.

    For me, it's not so much the fact that a landowner wants to be paid for the use of his land. It's the fact that they are complaining that the hogs are destroying their land and want *something* to be done about the infestation, and when you offer to help, they want to charge you for helping them. Just seems a bit two-faced...

    I agree with this, but with the following modification - if you charge a 'reasonable' amount - like a dove day hunt, say $50-$75, I'm all in. The smaller amount reflects the fact that I'm tromping across his property and benefiting him at the same time.

    Back on subject - yes, it would seem any bullet in a 500 S&W would be sufficient I'm actually thinking about using my 357 magnum next time I go looking for hogs.

    Roger that! Hunting hogs, especially on winter nights, is no picnic.
