Eased twards ground blind little before 8:00pm... Hogs already at corn 25yrds from blind... Eased alittle closer.. At 7:59 the sound of me .223 sending a cheap 55gr hp down range broke the silence... Hog droped were it stood, the other escaped threw the tall weeds inta the edge of tree line... en & chillen... Ohh, never try using a butter knife ta skin a hog, it doesnt work... Good thing had me spair... Have ta post pic later... Cant do it with me android..

A great example of persistence paying off.
Keep up the good work!

Havent been back out, back is still spassen... Most my hog hunten is on WMA... Need the excersise... Used ta archery hunt untill shoulder went oit... Got several videos of hogs from down thar, as said many a times finding the hogs was the easy part... 98% time huntsolo ... So taken more videos than pulled trigger... Have given invites, but, at times its ankle deep water, hitting thick out of way areas... 24-7-365 hunting pressure from surounding privite land makes great hog hunts on WMA were they have limits... tis usdta being laughed at & made fun of... Was haven bad day from back packing small hog out few years back whin friend said lets go get a hog... he didnt have ta ask twice... Hesitated on a 300+# hog that day, he still teases me bout not pulling trigger, we was out thar for some en & chillen... We've taken several hogs thar tagether, worked as a team, that day just wasnt up ta pullen me own weight, let alone, helpen back pack a big hog... He was cool about it... He hunts lease, get invite from time ta time.... Got cool weather right now... Edit: checked the public hunting part of form were had posted videos of OSBWMA they updated it, went from 3 pages ta 2 so they not thar no more...

Hey colt 45 if it makes you feel better, I spent 2 hours at a taco restaurant tryin to upload a video I made of a hog hunt. The service in town is better than the service out in the country I guess, but man it was like I was loading a 3 hour movie. sheww. Ive also been using cheap metal cased FMJs and the long distance body shots will deliver some runners if I don't hit spine, high shoulder, or the head. I may back a couple of FMJs up next time with some soft points. Just hate to shoot my better ammo at hogs.
Recently got a gym membership, strange folks! I like to show up the roid zombies with my full motion curls with the 55lb. bells. Not their cheater short stroked light weights. It's holarious.

been trying ta video a hog hunt with scope over laser under... On the 3rd had hogs 25yrds from blind, turnef on cheap cannon camera, still had good day light, but video cam was pretty dark, any ways laser was bouncing off tall weeds... So cleaned small shooting lane, let things cool down... This time was bout 10ft from blind & hogs were already at corn... Moved a little closer, twas gonna try video, then words of a friend popped inta me head, put down camera & choot-em ... So took pic & video afterwards... Posted pic's of the hogs in photo form, took out the darker hog, both are boars...

I had a huntin buddy that never carried bi nocks. He said heck by the time I get done looking at the buck with the specs the damn deer is gone. Its true, why not just look at him with the scope and then pull the trigger. All those extras can confuse a red neck. HaHa
