wow. thread resurrected

I have lots of friends like y'all too on the fishing side. Always asking for fish I spent the time and effort to catch/clean. Even had one guy upset that I let a bunch of stripers go since I don't eat them and had no desire to clean them just for someone else to enjoy.

I think it always tastes better if you put in the effort to catch/kill and clean it yourself.

So here's my first official hog (I knocked down another earlier in the day that we didn't track once it went running). It's the one on the right and I'm the chunky guy with the AR. Both hogs were taken at the same time (the other taken down by a 12G slug). Mine was DRT with a single shot through the vitals. Used a .223 60g Nosler Partition bullet from Black Hills. Did the job fine on this one. Took another the next evening. 4 confirmed and 1 run off for the whole weekend.

This little 300 acre area of Milam county we hunted was thick with the critters. And boy is it hard to imagine how much they tear up unless you see it and walk the ground in person.
