A good sign for all feral hog hunters is upon us! February 18, 2007 marked the first day of the Chinese New Year and it just so happens to be the year of the Boar! So, if your hunting has been a little lacking in game keep a positive focus. It will pick up!
What’s new at the WBC? Well, I’m glad you ask! Thanks to this great technology coined “the world wide web” we can share our various insight and experiences about hunting our feral prey. With that said, we’ve added a few new topics to forums at the WBC. They’re listed below:
1. Making Bacon: Feral Hog Recipes
2. Knives (In the tools section): Tell us about your favorite hunting knife.
3. Archery: There are many archer’s out there in the feral hog hunting community. Share your views on the many different bows & arrows used.
4. Knives (In the Book Notes section): Read a good knife book or maybe a bad one? Let us know what material you’ve found useful or not so useful.
So, create a forums login and let us share your views on any or all of the above topics plus any of the ones already there. If you have any problems or questions just send me an email at Maverick@wildboarclub.com

Hello! Maverick here. Things have been a little busy (ok, a lot busy!) so I have not had much time to work on the WBC site. For those who have stop by and return I appreciate the visits and thank you for coming back. In the next couple of weeks there will be new photos and videos posted on the site! I also plan to have a full Swine forum open in the same time frame, much better than our current chat area! Now, I apologize to Rick S. and Looney who posted questions through the contact maverick form as I was not aware that the email field was not working correctly. That little problem has now been fixed, so please continue send your ideas and/or questions by using the form at contact Maverick! As to the questions ask:
Rick S.:
Q: Where to find Craig Marquette and Dave Sturkey’s Wild Hog Hunting book from the WBC Book Notes area?
A: Rick, Mr. Marquette and Mr. Sturkey’s book can be found at Amazon.com. Click this title link: Wild Hog Hunting. As of today, it sells for 11.56 + shipping and such. Hope you enjoy it. Please leave us your feed back on the book if you purchase it.
Looney:
Q: What to do to attract our feral friends?
A: Well Looney, we’ve used all sorts of things but the most successful have been deer corn! At times we’ve dug a 2.5 – 3 foot post hole and filled it. We’ve also had success using fermented corn after letting is soak in water for some time. It carries a good strong smell! I’ll get some input from the rest of the WBC crew and pass that along to you also soon. Hope this helps and best of luck on your hunt.
Ok… That’s it for now. Be sure to send a photo to maverick@wildboarclub.com and I’ll add it to the WBC Wall of Fame. If you have any issues sending them please let me know.
