I think just about anywhere down south (at least in texas) you can shoot them whenever you want, however you want...you might not even need any sort of hunting license. I'd like to see a bounty on them so even more get shot. Hogs are one exotic I'd love to see gone! Hopefully they never do make it up here eek

I think they do not shoot them on spot because its a tv show, they want the drama, and also PETA problems. PETA probably already has a problem with this show.

Another issue is the heat. Most the time they are in Hawaii and its pretty warm even at night. I think they want to catch them, tie them up, and than bring them to a butcher fresh so the meat can be put on ice right away.

Basically another way to look at things is... We are watching discovery not versus or the outdoor channel. if it were one of the last two wed be watching them peg off multiple pigs from long distance ranges with a rifle.

I think I would rather pay money and have a good barn raised pig than eat an old boar who has been running in the weeds.

Shoot 'em and leave them lay. Coyotes will clean them up.

I think you guys are right, Discovery shows need to add drama and make something out of nothing.

Although, I wonder what they get paid for getting rid of a pig?

I imagine nothing for the show. The show pays them to be on it. I am sure they probably put out free hog removal ads for the show.

At least the pig is going to be distributed to families in need, or a food shelf.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
