Thread: Is Hunting for me?

Pig hunting with dogs certainly is different than hunting with a rifle. I was in a similar situation to you - keen to get into hunting and get amoungst it. Started pig hunting with a few locals for about a year and it was an eye opener to my otherwise sheltered life! I much prefer rifle hunting as hearing a squealing pig for prolonged periods of times is not very pleasant, and I realise that its is the best way to get pigs but it is quite a barbaric sport.

Give it a crack though as it is as ground roots as hunting can get. I'll never forget my first kill with a knife. The thrill of hearing the dogs go, the chase, the quickest and best way to get there, the adrenaline rush is higher than rifle shooting i believe. Theres only one way to find out if its for you or not
