"Once I got started, I just went for it. It was tough but it's awesome to have done it," he said.
The men's winner was Nick Johnston in 50.9 seconds and the ladies Ethney Barnaby in 53 seconds.
Friends of Te Ranga School spokesperson Fee Edwards said the weekend was a huge success, with about $5900 raised from the auction of donated goods.
"The cow-pat bingo and pig-hill run were both real hits."
Ms Edwards said the amount raised overall would not be known for a couple of days.
The trophy and $250 cash prize for the heaviest tusker went to Paul Miller with his 65.2kg (143.3lbs) porker, second place was Ivan Harding with his 60.4kg specimen.
Paengaroa Pig-Hunting Club president Raymond (Razor) Neville came third with his 59.3kg boar and also scooped the trophy and cash prize for the best tusks measuring an impressive 19.48cm.
But Mr Neville had a sad end to his two to three hour battle to bag his pig.
"I hunt the old-fashioned way with two dogs and a knife. This pig's a killer. It not only killed my older dog Dobbie, which I have had for nine years, but my other one at home, Springer, was also bloodied, and sadly she may not survive," he said.
Team Contractor Assassins won two trophies and two $500 cash prizes for the heaviest possum weighing in at 4.9kg and for bagging 107 possums.
