Pat Powell has 1st and second place tied up in the big pig contrst. Folically challenged.has dink pig so far.
Crimson tide won the bowling pin contest with a .357 revolver.
TexnCal won the cold barrel bullseye contest with a .300 RUM A bit of an update might be in order...... I do believe my dinks are dinkier than FC's. and although I stand to be corrected, IIRC, the guides put Ingwe's sow at the top. ya! GWB

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

13 hours and I only made it to Tularosa.Stooped on I-10 to pick up a kid old walking down the freeway from his broken down truck. It was twelve miles to Sonora, the next town. His uncle stayed with the truck trying to fix the split return hose. We picked up antifreeze but there were no hoses or clamps anywhere. Headed back and gave him my duct tape. The kid was fresh out a LA high school (Lincoln Heights) where was the star shortstop. As luck would have, he wants to go into law enforcement. I tried to talk him out of it but with no luck. They were very grateful.
Kamo Gari, you are inspirational.

Dan, that's the first image I've seen of her whole. Oh my simply gorgeous.
Fantastic time, great individuals and lots of perforated pork.
Thanks again for putting this together.

Dan hunted hard for this critter and got'r done. Congrats on a beautiful trophy. Also thanks to Dan for all his efforts in putting this hunt together. I had a ball! Shot pistolas until I was afraid I'd have to use my right hand to....... perforated some hoglets two 308's and and a twofer-mini with the 22 mag. unbelievable choice of libation. Shot about 200 rounds of 20 and 28 gauge shell at clays. Could have kept going but my shoulder was hamburger. and got to hang out with a mighty fine group of guys! Next year can't come too soon. ya!

Well, I spent the morning catching up with work. Then I downloaded my pictures from my camera and my phone to my computer. On my way back from lunch, while sitting at a stop light, the jackass second from the front of the line, started to go on green and then stopped. So me and the guy in front of me stopped and one of my neighbors trucks slammed me in the rear. Luckily I know the owner of the company and we're all good. My side impact air bags went off, but didn't deploy?????, from a rear impact??? My seat belt retracter is screwed up, so I can't wear that now. Weird. It'll need a new bumper, body work on the tailgate, and maybe a new trailer hitch. It's a 2017, fully loaded GMC crew cab in spotless condition. This sucks. So I've been tied up most of the afternoon with that and computer network problems and didn't have enough time to post pictures. I'll try to put some up tomorrow. I've got a lot of nice shots, including the 4 monster whitetail bucks I saw. Right now I need to get home, drink a lot of beer, and hope my neck isn't F^cked up too bad. That dude slammed me pretty hard and snapped my neck back. Thank god for high back buckets. I think it's just that the muscles got stretched. I hope everyone got, or is getting home safe. I got a welcome back with some screwed up schit.

It was, per usual, a great time and I do thank Dan for the work he does to continue to make it such. My youngest and I head out at 5 AM tomorrow for a couple of days of upland bird hunting. His first trip to watch dogs work. I doubt he will sleep much tonight.

Tracy---How many pigs did you get? Two the first morning (one at 16 yards and the big boar at 120) and one the last afternoon. The last one was sleeping in a wallow on the side of the road and we woke it up driving past it. We had a great time and you were missed. I think you heated up the rifle contest crowd with your factory ammo marksmanship.

SC, that’s sucks. I hope the neck issue passes. Get yourself a kick ass custom replacement rear bumper. The OEM one is a bit flimsy. My brother had a similar incident and replaced his with a Buckstop Bumper. It looks great.

Thanks guys. My neck is fine. Still waiting for the insurance company to contact me. I'm just pissed because I didn't need the hassle. The biggest problem I have is that my seat belt is screwed up and I can't wear it. It's stuck in the retracted position and I can't get it out. I'm waiting for a police officer to pull me over for not wearing it.
Kingston, I think you have a 2017 GMC or Chevy right? There's a recall on the seat belt retractors. I haven't had a chance to get it done. Now I know why they were recalled. If any of you guys have these trucks, get the recall done ASAP.
