CaptDavid,
If my granny had balls she'd have been my grandpaw. But thanks for the invite, I'll go back and read your thread.

Just my hard earned experience.
Is this your first trip to Texas?
I hunt all around that area. You are lucky to find it, or a darn good tracker. I'm sure it's the latter:)

I'm sorry if I sounded like I was being a smart a$$. It wasn't my intention. This was my third trip to Texas, always feel at home there. Bobby and I put our heads together on the track job, and were blessed with a tad of luck, I am sure.

If you know how to read sign and pay attention tracking isn't a problem... 1st hog I killed I was hunting with Pat and told him I'd shoot high shoulder and drop the hog in it's tracks which I did
Hog 2 and 3 I hit lower and got heart they ran like they were hit with a crop by a jockey on the home stretch,located hit site (120 yds away and 100 yds respectivley) tracked them into the brush and found them in short order.
I'd have preferred the high shoulder but hog No 2 was leaving quick and hog No 3 was in just about full darkness

I had a much harder time hitting them right, in the dark. They run like the dickens when lit up with 2400 lumens.

That's why I didn't light them up and just relied on the scope to shoot

I can't say anything bad about Joel, him and Bobby ( and a couple others I can't recall because my bell was ringing)...snatched me from the very edge of the abyss that is DEATH...and patched me up.


Then almost immediately began making sport of me. Especially Bobby...but he hooked me up with a sweet new Yeti Tumbler for coffee on the way home.... whistle
