Michelle and I hunted this evening. I took the pups along just in case I got a good blood trail to let them try and follow. Within 5 minutes I spotted a hog. I got to within 40 yards of it and fired the .243 Icon dropping the hog right there. I quickly got on another and dropped it as well, then a third and on the fourth a little far back as it ran through the brush. I watched as it bedded down in a thicket. I was out of ammo. I headed back to the truck and got the pups for their first real live blood trail as opposed to the man made ones they've been following. They did just fine following it in fact I couldn't even see blood where they first picked it up. They trailed right to the hog still alive but unable to move very well. Gabby just looked at it and Sue barked at it a bit, not quite sure what to do with it. I dispatched it and got them ready to load. I heard Michelle shoot about a half mile away she had taken a small sow with the .308 Icon. We took some pictures, loaded hogs and checked a few fields before heading home. We saw a small group of hogs in a field and Michelle was able to drop another small sow.
