We have been overrun by feral hogs in my area, and I figured out a way to rid myself of them over the winter.

I was ice fishing one day, and had to go to my truck, while I was gone, a hog ate all of my corn chum. An idea was born...I augered a new hole 10 feet from shore, placed a pile of corn in front of the hole, hid in the bushes and waited. A hog appeared, and as he was eating, I sprang from the bush, ran up behind him, and kicked him in the icehole.

im a fan of pork-sickles as well.

In Missouri, 2 things you can unload a box of shells on without fear of limits or regulations of any kind.  In fact, the conservation department whole heartedly encourages you to fire away.
