Default Guess the hog

Killed this last weekend in Brady. We didn’t have a scale. My guess is 275 ish but hopefully someone will have a better idea

WOW that boar has it all cutters and size. I think 275 is a conservative guess, I'm thinking over that rare 300 mark woulda been a great contest pig!

Solid pig with big ears. He could go north of 280 if he carried the weight. Hard to tell that from pics

Did he have a “set” or had he been cut?

I think you are about right at 275#. I’ve only seen 2 hogs over 300#- any over 250# are huge. 300# is like catching a 32 inch trout

I think you are undershooting the weight on that pig significantly

The one in my profile pic was weighed on a digital scale at 289 my second biggest hog so far. Yours looks to be bigger from those pic I think

Yes, but not as big as I would have thought for a hog that size. Most pigs that size have a football size set.

Not sure of the weight but I bet you needed a good bath after the fun messing with that nasty beast.

This one was 200# exactly. Takes a monster to hit 300!

Probably one of the closer ones to 300 but wild pigs usually don’t hand the muscles to make big numbers. I’d guess 225-275

I would guess he breaks 300. Big pig. Way over 250. Would bet he was in the 310-20 range.

Who's the feller in the overalls? Add 75# to his weight and I think you'll be close. Here's something for future reference, thanks to PB2.

It takes a big hog to weigh 300 but I’d bet he was right at it. I used to think I had killed a lot of 250 lb hogs until I started weighing them and they were 180. Haha

No scale, more than one person saying 300 plus. My story would always be 325lb monster boar to anyone I told

⬆️ I agree with this statement. And I’ve never guessed a hog to weigh 300 plus on here.

That’s a big pig, nicely done.
Here is a nice set on a solid pig I shot a few years back for comparison.
