    Anyone hunt hogs?

    I'm looking for a few pieces of hogs hair. It's been suggested I use hog's hair to use as a small hooded sight post. Apparently heating the tip will form the small bead at the top of the post. If anyone has a few hairs they can send me I sure would appreciate it. Best, Dan

    I hunt them in Georgia. I will be back next week. Killed 2 last week, if I get another one I can help you out. I've killed 59 in the last 2 years.

    And still haven't made a dent, huh?

    Danth, I'm fairly sure it was in Ned Roberts "The Muzzleloading Cap Lock Rifle" I read they used a hogs bristle..

    Yup, that's where I found it.
