foxdropper 17,092 Posted October 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Apparently there is no license or tag but still seems a bit steep ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well it is a lot of money but it is a chance that you might not have again. It might be interesting like it might just be a question of pulling the trigger. Do you have more information? How would the stalking happen? Are there dogs involved? A verygood wildboar could cost big money as well so... here it seems to be really much. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bullmastiff 610 Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Going by most of the videos on the net, they don't seem to stalk anything? they mainly sit in hides exactly 100yds or less from a auto grain feeder and just wait for a good one to appear? it seems a lot of money for not a lot of sport? But as stated when will you get the chance again? Cheers Luke. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tiff 36 Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 did you go or get any additional details? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dytkos 17,536 Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 did you go or get any additional details? Depends on several variables..... How badly do you want one? Have you got any other opportunities? Can you afford it? (not being personal) Go for it! Cheers, D. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
foxdropper 17,092 Posted November 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Back now .Thanks for all the replies lads ,appreciated .Fate determined that it wasnt to happen as i lost my wallet ,or had it stolen at Animal Kingdom and the wife ,quite rightly so, said we;d better save the money in case we needed it . The way it was explained to me was that me and the guide would be in a hide from last light to midnight ,no lamp just the stars to shoot by, .270 with no silencer as they are illegal over there .Sows free but boars charged according to size. Will probably get over there again so will try then . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JohnGalway Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I don't understand. Ye have boar in England, why not spend the money at home and (if possible) get the meat too? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
