usually, at night, on hands and knees through as Johnny Horton put it "through the briars and the brambles where a rabbit couldn't go".
So much fun crawling on your hands and knees with a flashlight in one hand and a pistol in the other thinkin', I'm miles from nowhere, nobody knows where I am, after almost 50 years of doing this, one day my number is going to come up.

sittin' around with my buds having a toddy and lying like a rug about how big that hoglet was that I shot an hour ago. In my old age that's beginning to seem like the better part of valor.

Conseqently I try to make sure those piggies are DRT.

Geedub,really do like the color on the first hog,is that a common color or rare?

Also looks like you have life figured out,except for the chasing of wounded hogs,at night,on hands and knees.
