Field Dressing Big Game- on a Wild Pig

http://www.huntfishhawaii.com
Instructional video on how to gut a wild hog. This method will also work on deer, goats, sheep, and other medium size game mammals. I hope other hunters find this video helpful! Remember, there are as many ways to gut an animal as there are hunters.

Special thanks to Jim and Katie for taking me hunting, for filming, and for their insights while making this video.

Killer video bro,

Can you hunt boar with a rifle in Hawaii? I was told that you could'nt, however I've seen several videos on youtube of people shooting hogs in the islands?

Thanks for a great, informative video..Mahalo!

@ENZORifleWorks Yeah, you can shoot them with rifle. Whoever said otherwise was misinformed. But there are registration laws. You have to register your firearms with the police within so many hours of arival... I think 72 hours. The registration takes about an hour. Most people just bring a bow to avoid the hastle. Dog and knife is most popular with locals.

Nice video. One quick question; what kind of dogs do you use?

[nbarca]

@bergersdog Not exactly sure what these dogs were. They tend to bay so I think they are some sort of cur mix. Everybody's pack is a little different. Some guys prefer pitbullXhound or pitbullXbird dog to get a grabbing/holding dogs with a good nose and agility. Others prefer bay dogs and cross curs or healers maybe with hound. You can use "grabber dogs" or "bay dogs" and if it is thick brush, grabbers work best.

@miketastic97 :D Gloves are for sissies!

Great video. I'd take you hog hunting with me anytime. Would have been nice if you made a "part 2" demonstrating skinning and meat processing. Again, very well done video and congratulations.

[netstepb]

Can't believe you aren't wearing gloves. Gloves may be for sissies, but no gloves are for diseases.

That was great, thank you.

I will be refering to this vid A LOT! I thought my small folder blade would be enough, time to hit up kershaw

[rotag111]

Very good vid. You do that well. A little different than I but none the less done well. Thanks for sharing.

[MrBrittonv]

Outstanding thanks. Hopefully you have a skinning/quartering vid somewere too!

@utubehayter Not to answer for the video maker here, but wild pigs are notorious for harboring all kinds of parasites in the liver and other organs. Just one reason. Also, wild pigs smell much more potent. It makes dealing with the guts a little less desirable...lol

Really, really well done. I like that you took care to show how to cut the penis area and around the anus first. This is one of the best videos on youtube for showing how to field dress. Your video works for deer as well. Nice.
