Congratulations on your first pig. The meat on that 75lbs pig should be nice and tender.

The junt took place up above Lakeport. The hunt is just about gauranteed in that if you don't get a pig out on the perimeter as I would say it you can go into an enclosed area that contains about 15 pigs (minus two now). Of course the outisde area was void of pigs so we were sent into the enclosed area. The landowner has fneces about 20 or so acres and originally put some sows into the enclosure to help attract boars to the property. The land is THICK and steep. Spen most of our time sliding down the hill. After a couple of hours we found a small group of hogs and got two. There was one in the group that would go 300 easy. I used my .30-06 with 165 grain Core-loc bullets and my firend Randy used his .264. Not sure what size bulltes he used. Both kills were head shots of about 15 feet for Randy and about 25 feet for me. Not exactly the kind of hunt you see on some videos but it was kind of fun and one of the cheapest around. Terry Manthey was a real nice guy and I am thinking of hunting with him next spring for Turkey.

Well congrats.  You'll get more pigs and you'll get bigger pigs, but you'll never get a more memorable pig than your first pig.

Congrats Kentuck on your first pig. Them pigs never hang out in flat open terrain much do they?

 

[Duck Assassin]

Nice ones Kentuck,
  Did you shoot at the same time and how much for the hunt?

 

[Kentuck]

The shots were about a minute apart. I was on one side of a gully and Randy was on the other. After he shot two pigs came up by me. The cost was 285.
