hog hunting at bridgestone/big bottom info

[tinter]

hey guys im new to tndeer heard about it from my brother and thought it might be a good place to ask this question. i dont have hogs any where close to me and have really grown fond of hunting them(and smoking bbq)but cant seem to get hooked up on a good place to go. im interested in the big bottom section at bridgestone/firestone, does anybody have any info on where to go in that area, i want to camp and hunt during rifle season. i would love to find some private land with a hog problem but that doesnt seem to be happening lol.

If you are interested in hunting Bridgestone, contact the number in the hunting guide for the area manager. He will help you out.

Ive heard people talk about coming in from the Spencer side into Big bottoms. My brother used to ride horses up there and we would talk about seeing trees rubbed to death from hogs.

well it was a long day but i saw tons of hog sign and trails that look like interstates lol but only came home with one small one. He was around 70#. he actually was shot earlier in the day(bad shot in the rear leg) but i finished him off behind the ear lol.
