was the giant bowie knife strictly necessary? personally i find a four inch blade is enough for evertlything you need to skin basically any animal in the US. but i guess to each his own. he did get the job done in a timely manor.
@Austavious1 I've cleaned all sorts of critters with nothing more then a 2 inch pocket knife. I have found using large blades speeds things up. We still had another pig to go with this load. When you do more then one hog at a time, you can't mess around being slow
If he's especially big or if I'm camping and won't be taking him home to skin, I like to remove the head first and then gut while he's still on the ground (to remove some weight) and then finally skin. I've found that gutting is a helluva lot easier while the hog is on the ground but propped up at a 35 to 45 degree angle, against a rock or on a hill or incline.
That's just my way though. This would work well too but I don't own any spreader bars.
@towlebucket Done it that way also, I use to have a cradle I layed the hog in and it worked great, but that was a long time ago. Thanks for watching Might want to take a look at THE HOG ZONE
good try, little fella, but you went about it all wrong. The whole time you had the pig on the ground, you were just working against yourself. I clean dozens of pig a year and know what I'm doing. Your inexperience especially showed when you used a large knife to open the pig. Anyone who has cleaned a pig knows how to get the intestines out without cutting the stomach, etc. And there is an easy way to cut through the joints at its point of articulation without all that barbaric hacking.
@SonsoftheRight Awesome put up a video I'd like to learn if it's faster. I use a large knife to open the pig so I can cut through the ribcage, I'm not butchering here i'm getting them in the cooler.
@Sledge276 Not dull cut a football in half and that's what you are dealing with. Big boars especially. Unless the pig is a small sow you can't just pull off the hide
@SunnyMoon2010 Yes I love cracklins or fried pork hide but that would required removing the hair etc, If you seen my videos this was the third hog I cleaned and sometimes I do as many as 10 so removing the hair is not an option
@deepfriedking I have seen people burn off the hair on pigs with a butane torch before. Will that work on boar hide ? BTW, do male boar meat has strong musk taste ? How to get rid of it ? thx
@SunnyMoon2010 Sure will though I have never done it, I've heard a million things about big boars tasting like hell but I have yet to have an issue with any boar yet. You need to make sure you don't touch the meat after touching the outside hide on a boar, maybe that's what makes em taste weird, I haven't had an issue but that doesn't mean they don't cause others to have a problem just my opinion
It's always a lot of work. I can add one suggestion on cutting the bone. Instead of a machete I use a Dewalt 18 volt cordless sawsall. It makes it a lot easier.
@masterplomo1 It is the same as a farm hog, don't have the time to mess with all that extra work. We did bring home two for people with the hide still on, they were going to do that to the pig but it just takes to much time
@1gamoguy i'm sure there is some type a guru that does it in 5 mins, but he ain't posted it yet thx for watchin hope it helps people get em in the cooler
@mmlrc6atgmailcom There use to be a saying down here, was this, you have hogs yet, answer was no they we'd say they are coming don't worry. lol, they are a good excuse to buy another gun though!
The hide is really tough.

Is the knife dull or is the hide really that tough to get off? I ask because I'm new to hunting and haven't cleaned one before.
