Was shocked at the animal on my list

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...
 
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.

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

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris

Hello:
I’ll take the .375 Whitworth for $1,150 if the deal falls through.
Thanks .
