TBNHC winds to a close Sunday
PICKTON – The Texas Big Nasty Hog Contest is winding to a close in the woods of East Texas.
“We have had quite a few hogs turned in, but it doesn’t seem as many as what we had last year,” recalled Jared Brumley, co-founder of Bluecollar Bowhunter.
Despite the cold temperatures in the air Brumley said that hasn’t really affected the contest. “Normally, animals move around more prior to a cool front,” he added.

PICKTON – The Bluecollar Bowhunters’ Texas Big Nasty Hog contest continues to see results as the rumors flood the website.
“There have been 37 reports of hogs harvested on video so far. Some of the videos have been reviewed and are looking good,” BCB co-founder Jared Brumley recently reported. “Some of the hunters have been having a bit of bad luck and some are having extremely good luck but that’s hunting – you never know what is going to happen when you step in the woods. However I can't give any weights out.”

“We are very excited about the contest this year and had a good turnout,” Sickles said. “We would like to thank all of the people that help get this contest up and going…I can not give out any weights on the hogs killed so far but I can tell you that the hogs are a lot bigger this year than last year.”
