I agree and normally don't clean pigs, but these were the perfect "eating size". It didn't cost me anything but a little time, so I decided to give these a try.

You can't eat the large ones. Besides the smell being something you can't imagine, you can't get the gamey taste out. If you try to cook it in your house, throw away the house. Ha.
People tell me about things they did in curing, marinating, smoking etc. with the piglets but I've had no luck whatsoever.
I shot one a few years ago in Love valley a lone female and it was about 125 lbs with guts.
I skinned her there and deboned her there and into the ice chest she went.
Tasted like store meat.
I have purchased male pigs that were 200+ farm raised and some were not fit to eat.. big balls hanging.. they taste Pissy,
as my wife's grandfather told me they would.

Good luck and let me know how they turned out (tasted).
You're preaching to the choir. I've tried them from piglet up to about 300 lbs.
Feeding one out may cure the gaminess? Don't know.
I've shot two. One was 150+, the other was 90lbs.
The big one was nasty.
The smaller one was really tasty.
The big one came off free range, the smaller one off a free high fence hunt with corn feeders.

Feeding out the females works great. Unless the males are young, don't waste your time.
Some people say the same about venison.
I don't think it's even close but I get it. I like deer meat but know people that will not eat it.
A matter of taste I guess.
Allegro works great for venison. I don't know about pig as I've never tried it nor heard of anyone trying it. I do know for a fact that it works on venison though. I cooked a roast once that my father in law thought was beef.
