jefo65 Die Hard Member Registered: 01/07/10 Posts: 591 Loc: Morris, IL	Went down to Brown county this weekend and met up with a couple guys that a buddy has done some bowfishing with. Not taking long for the locals down there to figure out a way to make the pigs into a revenue. Gotta say I had fun with the new 6x45 but officially confirmed wild hogs are well on their way to becomming a problem in Illinois now too. Things are only 185 miles south of me (at least it was a short drive) with the Illinois river running thru the center of "hog country" wonder how long it will be before they start showing up around the homestead?
