That last pig looks like a boar with some tuskers.
The second pig top on left is the one I'd like to take.
Good group of piggys.

I told Westy we need some video of a hog charge like them NEw Zealand fellers so he's going to be wading in real tight this weekend. Gonna splash some sow love juice all over his camo pants while he's sleeping just to make sure it's a big boar charge.

Hogs have been raising havoc around the house and cabin every night, so they would most likely open the cabin door and charge everybody. LOL

Workin on the video, I'll get it finished tomorrow. Had a ball at Randy's. (RNJ Wild Hog Hunts). Them Barnes copper bullwetts did a job on a couple poor pigs. This is Barnes DPX .308 165 grain damage. Pencil hole going into ribs just behind shoulder, then grenading the spine. Exit hole about the size of a quarter. Hog was a bang, flop on the spinal shot. No dying cockroach.

It was a pleasure meeting you and Rick this weekend. And how crazy was it that because of you and this forum I was reunited with a long lost friend that I hadn't seen in 20 years! Can't wait to read the stories and see the pics and videos! I have no doubt that it was a fun and exciting hunt. Congrats to you and everyone.

Hey Cold1. It was great to see you after all these years. Getting to hang out and reminisce about the fun and dumb stuff we did when we were kids was one of the highlights for me this past weekend. I still can't believe it. We have to get together again soon.

I have to say a big thanks to Randy at RNJ for an awesome weekend. What a blast we had. He runs a class act operation. He works his butt off to get you on the pigs.

It was also great to get to meet Jesse and westy. My dad and I had a great time hangin out with you guys. There was never a dull moment this weekend. I'd share a camp with you two anytime.

On to the story. I bought this hunt for my dad for his birthday. He has never shot a pig before so I figured he would enjoy this gift.

The five of us went out and hunted hard Friday evening and Sat. morning. We were seeing pigs (some real dandy's) but for one reason or another we couldn't get close enough for a shot. It was pretty hot so we came back to the cabin and rested for a while. After napping for a few hours westy my dad and I were just hangin out shootin the breeze. Jesse was still sleepin when Randy suggested we go down and check out a creek bottom. It was about 2 in the afternoon and hot. Not thinking there would be much action westy said to let Jesse sleep.
<

We get to the creek and start to quietly work our way down it. After about 20 mins we spot pigs just ahead of us. My dad is in the front so Randy sets him up for a shot. At this point we only see 2 smaller pigs feeding under an oak. My dad crawls in a little closer for the shot. One pig turns ass end towards us and the other goes behind a tree. Just then a larger pig pops out from behind a tree to our right. My dad spots it, puts the scope on it and fires. The pig dropped in its tracks. He had his first pig down. It was a sow about 130 lbs or so. A nice meat pig. After the shot Randy gets westy set up to take another hog, which now we see there are about 8 in the group and they are all running away going to our left. Westy pulls his rifle up and takes a hurried shot and misses. He jacks another round in and fires. Click. Oops, he didn't get the empty all the way out. He works his bolt again this time f bombs are dropping like its Hiroshima. He pulls thr trigger again, click. Short stroked it again. More f bombs. Third time he gets a live round chambered and fires again. Missed. Even more f bombs. By this time the pigs are making their way up a steep hill. Randy takes westy and they head up an adjacent hill. when they get to a good spot they set up for another shot. Westy takes a knee and fires across the creek and takes out the last and biggest pig of the group. It was a great shot, right through the neck and very cool to see as the pig rolled all the way back down the hill. Randy went and got the Jeep, we loaded them up and started heading back. It was at this point when we thought oh chit! Jesse is gonna be pissed. When we pulled into camp Jesse came out and said "where did you guys go?" Wooops. Sorry about that Jesse. I really wish we would have woke you up. There could have been some really sweet footage. Oh well, now we have an excuse to do it again.

Thanks again Jesse and westy (aka dry fire).

You guys made this weekend a fun fiiled time for my dad and I.

Another big thanks to Randy. You are a great guy and you have an amazing ranch full of pigs. For anyone looking for a great time at a beautiful ranch go see Randy at RNJ wild hog hunts.

I took all the pics on my dads camera so I won't be able to get them off until tonight. Hopefully Randy can post up a few before then.

Good times.

Eric
