What... Do you have a problem hunting hogs from 30,000 feet?? :evil2:

30,000 feet isn't the problem; 500mph is!! (Along with the near lack of oxygen :lol: )
Bah! A real hunter would hold his breath, and adjust for windage! :biggrinjester:

I'm not interested in killing for the sake of killing. Realize these things are a huge problem down here but I really really like bacon.

I agree that the meat is tastier than venison, but feral hogs are a real agricultural problem. No landowner would go to the expense of shooting hogs from a helicopter unless it was economically beneficial. [Translation: Hogs do a lot of damage, and the cost of the helicopter shooting is cheaper than letting the hogs go unchecked] I don't really like the waste of meat, but when I catch a rat or mouse in a trap I don't eat them either. :shock:

A real hunter would get closer. It's poor souls with no skill for stalking game that have to take long shots. :evil2:

It's really tough to stalk prey at 30000 ft traveling at 500 MPH! :biggrinjester:

If you can do it -- YOU 'DA MAN!!!

They weren't at 30000 ft. And it was the equivalent of hunting fish with dynamite. :banghead:
