Let the fun begin
Its amazing how nice 50deg feels
There are hogs everywhere...
Still waiting for Mr big
But it scares the crap out of me every time.
I think that AT&T is the only carrier down there worth anything except for US Cellular. That is unless you sit in the right chair at the fire pit and there is no signal sucker next to you.
Here's Ed with a nice hog he shot from stand 6 tonight.
I'll let you guys tell the story, but here's a picture of Bob's boar. Congratulations and good shooting guys!
Bob almost stalked another big one this morning, but when he got withing range it busted out a dozen other hogs he didn't see.
Its a beautiful day to go kill some pigs.
Pictures of Ken's giant one eared red hog from stand 1 will be up shortly. Its a beast.
Ed killed a nice meat hog from 6.
And the ugly.. Both Bob and I put arrows into the shoulder of hog. Sucks so much.
Mine was a big hamp colored . no blood or penetration. Worst feeling ever.
Congrats on some nice piggies.
No hogs yet, but at least I have the corn stealing deer to keep me company.
Heading out to stand 2 in a little bit to kill that big hamp.

I gotta start dragging..
Hogs had been there for a while, but this wooly brindle hog arrived on scene and began pushing all of the other hogs around.
It was easy to follow him amongst the other hog as his wooly tail was considerably thicker than the other hogs.
It is amazing how good I can shoot when I slow myself Down, concentrate, and pick a spot.
I drew my bow and had to let down several times because I didn't want to push the shot as the hog moved around the stand site.
He would be broadside for a second and then just as quickly quartering to me.
At the shot he ran to the east and I was used to hunting for antelope from a blind immediately popped my head out of the blind to see my hog running fifty yards and cartwheel ing to a stop.
I had redeemed myself with a great shot.
The boar weighed in at 120# bigger than I thought. There was no ground shrinkage. But not too big to be stknky.
I'm sure Cheryl will post a pic soon.
I can't thank them enough for a relaxing, frustrating (from my own bad shooting) and amazing hunt at Shiloh.
I can't wait until next year.
It was a privilege for us to host you all's hunt again this year. Please be careful on your drive back to the great white north and make sure to let us know that you got home okay. Enjoy that fine pork you'll be dining on for a while!
Nice shot. Glad you ended on a great note, with the perfect hit and hanging tough in the rain.
