Took my son out this weekend and had a great day. Spotted the herd of 12 nice sized hogs at about 500 yards away. Wind in our face and stalk is on. We are walking though 6 inches of water in this field and the hogs are rooting and wallowing in this open field. We hunch over and pretend we are deer and single file to the first tree. Then we move to the next tree and finally to the last tree. Hogs have no idea we are close. We are no within 150 yards and they just keep rooting. I look at my son and say you get a bead on one and squeeze one of and I will follow up with a shot. He counts to 3 and lets his AR 30-06 rip and all we hear is the squeal of the hog. Down it went. I get a bead on one and fire and miss, fire again and miss, what the heck? Finally i nail one and second pig down. We high five each other and walk over and both are about 150 lbs and great meat hogs. Dropped off at my favorite place Freedom Meats for some sausage. LOL. Can’t ask for a better time with my son. Pubic land and loving it!
