All:

I got an invitation to hunt on a man's ranch less than an hour away from me here in Texas. This place was LOADED with game. I got these critters in three hours. Rifle is a Ithaca imported Tikka in 308. DEAD NUTS accurate. Everything flopped on the spot. Big hog was dropped well over 200. Also got my boys some catfish at John's place.

Note: Notice the Savage shirt on me and the Savage hat (he stole it) on my oldest. So there a sliver of Savage taint. smile

Hey Jeff !!!! Is your trigger finger getting sore yet??? BTW, found that Savage hat in the floorboard of my truck today. Will put it back on the rack and save it for next time. Sharon and I are very happy for you......deer, pigs and turkey, in less than 7 days !!!! If those boys were old enough to tote a rifle, there wouldn't be much game left in Texas !!!!! Good for you.

Pictures are amazing, I must say. The picture in which your kid and fish is there looks even better. It must have been tiring hunting though.

Jeff
Those are some dandy Hogs, and Great Photo's.
Congrats.
I'm surprised that there were any birds left after hit with the 308.
