My oldest son leaves Sunday for UC Davis, so before we get him all packed up and ready to go I figured I go hunting with him one more time. So I called a friends with a nice size ranch near Lake Sonoma and got permission to take him it there.
We got to the property around 6pm and started walking. Got on a doe and get fawn around 5 minutes into the hunt. She ran off and no bucks followed, so on we went.
We head up a fire road about 200 yards where the road forks. I look left and about 80 yards away there's a hog coming down small hill. My boy gets on one knee puts the animal in his scope and boom.... He misses. The hog about 5 yards and stops boom he misses again.
We follow the direction of the hog and she it comes from under a huge oak about 50 yards out. This tine he pulls the trigger and the hog never moved another inch. So happy I was able to help him get this hog right before he leaves.

Congratulations to you and your son. I am an alumni of UC Davis. Great school, great atmosphere. Yolo Bypass is super close...Get some good duck hunting in when you go up to visit him.

Great advice inchr, I will pass this on to my daughter who just started at Idaho State. It's nice having my own personal scout in Game rich Idaho!...... IMG952012090795163644-1.jpg

Thank you guys. It was nice to see him be so down on himself for missing the first two shots (He admits it was just nerves) then to make such a nice shot on the next one was great.
Me and his mon are very proud of him fore the hard work it has taken to transfer from Santa Rosa Junior College to UCD.
