Guide Capt Ben led a 2-Night Hog Hunt for Pig Problem, with some exciting moments to share.

On the first night, the group found a Small Sounder of about 12 Hogs in their first field. After a short wait, they took their shots from 80 yards away, successfully dropping a Sow and a Piglet. It was a successful start to the Hunt and everyone had a great time.

The second night was a bit different as the Hogs didn't seem to want to cooperate. Instead, the group decided to turn it into a Predator Hunt. They spotted two Coyotes running through the field and set up quickly. With the guide's expert calling, they were able to lure one of the Hungry Coyotes in.

After waiting for the perfect moment, they took their shots and made clean heart shots on both Coyotes. The second coyote took a tumble after initially seeming to dodge the bullet, but both animals were quickly taken down. The group was thrilled with their successful Predator Hunt and the opportunity for some great mounts.

Overall, it was a memorable and successful 2-Night Hog Hunt led by Guide Capt Ben, with some unexpected twists and exciting moments along the way.

Last night with Hog Hunting there was flash floods, lighting, or tornado warnings did not deter them from their mission of Hunting Hogs. Despite the harsh weather conditions, the group managed to take down a total of 3 Wild Hogs that night. Tracking a group of 3 in the pouring rain on the second field, they were able to successfully kill one, while the other 2 barely escaped. Moving on to the third field, they spotted 1 Pig at first, but upon closer inspection, they found a group of 9 more Wild Pigs. Surrounding the lone pig, they were able to successfully take down 2 more. Dragging the heavy animals through the soft mud in the pouring rain proved to be a challenging workout. Despite checking a couple more fields with no luck, the Hunt was considered a great success in the end.

It was a beautiful night for Hog Hunting, except the Wild Hogs never came out of the woods. We saw 2 Hogs all night but they just walked across the field and we were never able to take them down for stealing or trespassing In our farmers fields. Wild Pigs are in the top 10 smartest animals so some Nights Hunting are not easy. But we were able to call in the Coyote from 450 yards with a simple mouth squeak. Hunting Coyotes can be just as fun. Something is better than nothing! Tonight will be better and we are looking forward to Slaying Some Hogs.

Bark River Elmax Gunny Hunter Review

 Bark River Gunny Hunter ELMAX

As a professional outdoorsman: hunter, fisherman, and outfitter, I’ve learned a thing or two about gear that is needed to get the job done. I know that the real work begins when the knives come out. So in order to provide my customers with thrilling, and memorable hunts, I make sure to use top quality, no-nonsense products that I field and use on a daily basis.

While guiding a hunt with Ohio outdoorsman, Jerry Fogt and friends, he asked if I would use his knife when it came time to break down the hogs. So I graciously agreed, but I’ll admit, I didn’t think it was going to do any better than what I had been using. Surprisingly though, not only did it get the job done, but I was so blown away by its edge retention that I went out and bought the exact knife from DLT trading the next morning.

I own a lot of off the shelf name brand knives, but this was my first Bark River, so I wanted to understand why the Gunny Hunter was so much better than what I had been using. Searching reviews and watching countless videos of people cutting line and then shaving through paper did not feel like a good place to start exploring the quality of this product.  So to get proof it was everything I wanted in a knife, I used it for a season of hog hunts, and any other hunting trip I was on.

Bark River Knives is a family owned semi production knife company out of Escanaba, MI USA. I would call it a semi custom knife company that builds heirloom quality at a reasonable price. The model I chose was the Gunny Hunter in ELMAX steel with black micarta scales. Before I purchased this knife, I had never heard of this brand nor did I know anything about it. 

The Steel used is called ElMAX and is considered a super steel, but when used for knife production, it makes a superior knife. It is stainless steel, so it will hold up in foul weather and needs less attention than a carbon steel knife. I have skinned up to 14 hogs in one night, so cleaning the knife is the last thing on my mind. I want my attention to be focused on looking for hog #15 to add to the pig pile.  

The edge retention on this blade is second to none, compared to other knives. A convex edge is superior to other designs for field use and resharpening. Sharpening this knife is a breeze as you strop it, so you don’t need the angular precision like other blade grinds. While stropping a convex edge by hand you sharpen the entire blade not just a narrow edge. The benefit is much more natural and forgiving so you don’t need mechanical aids. For comparison ELMAX does take longer to get sharp compared to A2 but is on par with S35VN.  I never needed to use anything other than a strop to get my edge back for the entire season while using this knife.  

At Pig Problem Inc., we outfit, fully guide, and butcher our hunters’ game. Guiding customers to as many shot encounters as possible has allowed me to use this Bark River to skin and quarter well over 100 hogs, a dozen deer, a bear, and an elk. The Bark River needs a minimal amount of maintenance for this kind of performance. This is a true hunter’s knife.
