Some years ago, a buddy and I castrated 4 large boars by getting them very drunk on rotgut vodka first. It worked, but was sure not easy...I would never allow a boar pig to grow very big before he got his little operation again.
I would guess the largest boar was about 450lbs, and they are incredibly strong, even when they are falling down drunk. We also tied them up with heavy wire before we began the work.
All 4 boars survived the surgery, and after a couple of more months feeding them, they all tasted real good. Those were the largest pork chops I have ever seen. But feeding them so long, we didn't come out at all on that pork, even when the half grown boars were given to us for free.
Live and learn: There is a reason that most boars get made into barrows at a very young age--it is a HECK of a lot easier. Good luck with what you have now, but never let it happen again, if you can avoid it.
