Question Hogs around Cobb County?

Do any of you know where the nearest pigs are to me? I live in Austell, in Cobb county, and nobody I've talked to in person has even seen a wild hog anywhere near here. I'd like to hunt a few, mostly since there's no closed season, no limits, and no restrictions; which would help me pass a warden inspection without looking nervous. Plus, it's a good way to make sure my technique and equipment are up to par for the upcoming deer season...

I have a few friends as well that would love to get some porkers for a barbeque, and they haven't even seen a game animal larger than a squirrel, so I think it's a good way to get some more people into the sport.

Any help would be great.

Probably the nearest place for you would be Pine Log Mountain WMA. West Cherokee/East Bartow county.

i'm sure is saw a piglet on Mars Hill Rd just east of The powerlines, near the Allatoona Creek Core Land. It was a young pig, I could be wrong but I'd be willing to bet a bunch of money i saw a hawg.

I think I saw one somewhere between woodstock and canton along 575 that had been hit. Would have been a year or 2 ago. Can't recall exactly where and since I was driving I didn't get a really good look.

Saw a dead pig right before the exit ramp on Chastain Rd., last year. Backed up and verified, it was a hog.

As far as Pine Log, no hogs up here. They all migrated to Cohutta.

There sure are hogs in Cobb. I have a pig that lives on either side of my home. Their husbands keep making corn trails away from the house, but they keep comming home. Those pigs sure are smart. LOL Just joking.
