I've been waiting for 9 months to shoot a big boar and thanks to a friend inviting me out to East Texas this weekend I was able to take down this monster. I'm not sure what he weighed but I'm 6'6 205lbs so I'm thinking he's maybe 300lbs? Oh and I was actually varmit hunting and he came running with some sows that were trying to get my distressed cottontail call.
