  • Greg is on a mission to hunt and trap boars while he's in Oklahoma! Some friends invited him out to their HUGE ranch, where they've been having problems with wild pigs, so he's allowed to catch and cook as much pork as he likes.

    Greg is a self-taught survivalist from Canal Flats, British Colombia, who, since he was a boy, has read nearly every book on the topic. When he is not out in the wilderness, he is a professional dry-waller. He started his first bow drill fire when he was thirteen and spent the next forty years learning bushcraft and studying plants and edibles. He has even developed some of his own survival techniques and is a skilled hunter with both a bow and a slingshot.

    I wish i had known you were coming. Would have been so cool to meet you. I live as close as you can be over in Missouri. Been watching since the beginning and if you ever get back this way would love to have a coffee. Drop gate on the inside they can't push out. The wire must be secured to ground EVERYWHERE or they lift up and walk out....i can run a camera. Ive been a professional guide all of my life, and 3 generations before.

    I can't help but think just a simple drop down door, with the frame secured in the ground might have been a better way to close off the pig trap?

    Awesome, I too live in oklahoma and it is SO cool to see you doing survival stuff here !!!!!! It is a unique place for survival thats for sure !! we are the most diverse state in terms of geographics, we have plains, mountians, swamps, forests, etc. all in one state. My least favorite thing about the woods here, is Ticks, and poison oak, poison ivy. And it gets stupid hot and humid here in the summer.

      Actually nothing that meets Mountain scale. Only tall hills. However Oklahoma has more shorelines than the Pacific, Atlantic, and gulf coast combined. Also larger than any state east of the Mississippi.

      The landowners asked for help to manage the wild boars, as they are overrun with these destructive, dangerous predators. Wild boars reproduce very quickly, cause soil erosion, degrade water quality, destroy crops and terrorize other wildlife. The meat has not gone to waste. The hunt was clean and humane. The 'dumb animal' was not fenced in. Thank you for your critique of my comment. Have a nice day. @@nogglebeak

    Greg; Usually a pig door is made from a thick piece of plywood on a frame like a dog door but very large, the pigs can push it open but cannot push it back out to get out. INstall it on about a 45 degree angle so it is easy to push open and will close behind them so they can't get out. Thanks

    watch out for frame rates on your fast forward footage. It seems maybe you are recording in at least 29.97 but just putting the footage straight into a 24 fps timeline. it drops fames every so often just to play the 29.97 fps footage in compliance with the timeline and amplified when sped up. Try slowing the 30fps footage down to 80% so the frames line up with 24ffps timeline

  • @airadaimagery692
    @airadaimagery692 7 місяців тому +2

    The trap that I build has a similar spring loaded door set up, which is just a continuation of the fence, much like you are using. And the door is wide open, at first, so the hogs can just walk in. I have a mechanism that shuts the door, once they trip the cable next to the feed. But the way that I have it set up, hogs can still get into the trap from the outside, once the door is shut, but they can not get out. Once you are in the trap, and the door closes, you literally have to have hands to pull the door open, you can’t push on it to open it from the inside. You can only push on it to open it from the outside. It’s a Pretty ingenious set up. A Florida pig hunter showed it to me. I’m from Louisiana and I have built several different types of traps since the ‘80’s, but this one has been my favorite by far. It’s built out of T-Post and field fencing. The stuff with the squares not the rectangles. It’s much stiffer, and that’s what allows the door to work so well, when set up properly. The Florida pig hunter has a UA-cam video showing how he builds it if you’re interested in watching it., I’ll try to find it...

    No offence greg but when you want to trap something don't have your STINK all over it. Use gloves & cover your mouth while assembling it, or when finished rub dirt over everything you've touched. It makes the target less suspicious. Remember there sight is poor but there smell is 100 times better then ours. Shouts out from Ireland 🇮🇪
