[QUOTE="shootermcgavin, post: 1061273, member: 4527"] I'm getting ready go pig hunting for the first time too. My girlfriends grandparents have 720 acres that apparently now has pigs on it in South Texas near Abilene/ Sweetwater. I've not seen the land really. I know there is some open field and some wooded area, but not sure how thick it is; and I think 2 ponds. Her grandfather is going to take me out there and show me the land and where they have been digging around..... At this point, baiting them isn't an option because they just want to get rid of them and I am so far away can't actively pursue that. So, that brings up two questions; 1. Would you use a scoped Ar-15 or a shotgun? I plan on bringing both down there but don't know which would be a better option. 1a. If you say shotgun, buck shot or slugs, and does it matter what choke I have on my gun when shooting buck/ slug? Don't wanna mess anything up on my gun. 2. What would be the best approach to hunting? Walk and stalk? Sit up near water or something of that nature? [/QUOTE]
