Hi TGT friends,
I’ve never been hunting (I mean ever), not for any ethical reasons, but because I’ve simply never been exposed to it. Been into collecting and shooting paper for years though.
I’ve of course known about the Texas hog problem for a while now, but recently got inspired to enjoy some outdoors and take down some of the terribly invasive species.
I was hoping some of the local experts can provide some advice on how and where to start. The only gear I have is the guns and ammo; no feeders, cameras, tree stands, and probably most importantly, I don’t have the land. I live in the suburbs of north Dallas.
Below is some of the more appropriate items in my Arsenal.
- Aero Precision .308 with Vortex Strike Eagle 1x8x24
- Rock River Arms AR15 in 5.56 with 20 inch heavy barrel and cheap 3x9x40 scope
-Springfield M1 Garand in 30.06
- Your typical Mosin
In all honesty, I’ll probably use the 308, but am just doing a little showing off at the same time
Any and all input is welcome. How and where do I get started?
