Public land PERDITION.

Those pigs are brutal especially if you arent prepared to deal with one that size.

Congrats!
I've taken and put guys on hundreds of pigs. I know how much work they are. But the combination of age, several surgeries, osteo and rheumatoid arthritis has caught up to me. Beasts that size are nothing short of hell now. If I could only find them next to a road.
 
I’ve learned a lot from your post over the years…might as well just drop the pin in my DMs :P
Then I've done more than my part, happily. I'm sure you know, good public land spots are difficult to come by. But super easy to blow out. This spot in nothing but work, without killing anything. And an animal to the mix, and you'll be tested, in many ways. I have a couple guys I hunt with, but like most, they can't always get out there when I want to go. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy hunting alone, I'm just more effective hunting alone. But once I pull the trigger, at least at my age now, I want someone there to share the misery with. But spot burning is real, and I've gotten very selective about who I'll hint with, and moreso about who I'll introduce to a spot I hunt.

I hear ya. I share my spots with my two hunting buddies and that’s it!
