Title: Texas Hog
Post by: Fletcher on March 17, 2015, 03:29:00 PM

A group of us went from Illinois to Texas last week for some pig hunting. I was sick for the first half, but lady luck smiled on me Thursday night with this nice hog. Yeah, I'm happy.

Shot him in the dark under a green light a little after 8PM. He went about 60 yards with a good blood trail.

Toelke Whip, 62", 50@26; Grizzly Instinct 200 gr; self made Surewood fir arrow.

Thanks for all the compliments. I'd like to brag him up, but the truth is that he was the only one to offer me his side. When I shot, all I knew is that it was a pig. Had no thought that it was a big one. Shooting under a dim green light from a low ladder stand is kinda different.

Same night as Rick killed his big boar, I shot this sow about 1/4 mile away. Camera angle makes mine look big, but was about 60#. I'm starting to love these pig hunts!

What a great way to get over the winter blues. Too bad we have to drive so far to find pigs.

We hunted all week and killed four pigs that evening. Funny how that goes, sometimes.
