Trapping is about the only option & all you will do is thin'em down. You'd be better off to get started on that if you are gonna do it. I was talking with a fella from around Graham & he said if you don't live very close to your place the best method is to set up a trap and wire the door open. Go to some place like walmart and get one of those cheap bucket type dusk/dawn deer feeders. Rig it so that almost all the feed will fall into the trap. He said if you do this one weekend, by the next they should be coming to very regularly. Get out there on Friday or Saturday, set the door & the next morning you should have hogs. Repeat as necessary...
I have never done any trapping, but last month a fella trapped hogs off the property behind the land we hunt on NW of Gatesville. He got 64 of'em. We have several game cameras out. He didn't get them all by any stretch...but we saw a big drop off in what is coming to our feeder areas.
Good luck,
Ross
