The wife got off work early tonight she was able to sit in the pop up blind I put on top of the hill with me at the home place. We got in the blind at about 3:45 and about 14 min later a yote comes trotting in I get him stopped but don't have time to get the shooting sticks up so I freehand the shot at 100 yards. DEAD YOTE and 7 mags do VERY bad things to yotes if you were wondering Less than a min later the feeder goes off. I figure there's no way a deer is coming in with the dead yote laying there so I hoof it down the hill and drag it back up the hill behind the pop up blind. Get back in the blind and wait for the deer to show up. About 35 min later we here a really loud sniffing near the blind. I easy open the flap on the top of the hill side of the blind and through the cedars I can make out PIGS EARS never seen a pig on the place before and before I can get the gun out the window he winds us and runs back down the hill out of sight. A few min later the wife sees him running down the far fence line but he gets to the creek before I can find him in the scope Now I'm mad first pig I spot and he gets away without even a shot. About 15 min later the wife says " pig,pig,pig" I look up to see him headed back down the fence line at a quick trot in the other direction. NEVER EVER give me a second chance cause I'll make you pay Mr Pig 265 yards on the run the 7 mag does it again he was 200 + lbs and had small cutters and NO NUTS

Great shooting Txvarminter.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it. Don't text and drive.
