Well, we finally founds the pigs again. Had been seeing a lot sign in one area over the past couple weeks and hadn't seen a pig one for quite some time. Made the trek back to the spot again this morning and it paid off.
I spotted the first pig at about 100 yards midway up the hillside. Shane spotted it right after I did and the hunt was on. Pigs bolted from left to right and we got ready to shoot. I told Shane I was tracking the second pig in the line and fired...down she went with a direct hit to the neck. #1 down. Shane picked up the third pig and fired once. The young boar stumbled and kept on trucking. Shane fired round two and asked me for a third after the pig was still booking it (gotta love the copper). It was starting to quarter away from us and I put it down with shot #3. Pig #2 tagged.
After basking in the glory of finally finding them again, the reality of the drag ahead of us set in....man, what a long day.
His boar was about 140# and my old sow was eveyr bit of 175#. Not the biggest but still enough to fill the freezers. Enjoy fellas.
