Trying to bow hunt twice a day and pig hunt all night is killing me! The bucks are still nocturnal but I won't pass up a hunt. Friday night was slow pig hunting. They came in after I left at 2am. Went out Sat. night at 8pm til 10pm. Nothing but raccoons. Went back out 11pm to 1am one fox. Last stand was 2am til 4:30am when I woke up in the blind and called it a night. Grabbed my gear, closed the windows and opened the door to leave when this boar walked in. Closed the door, opened the window and smoked him with the Savage 7mm Rem Mag. Hornaday 139gr GMX Superperformance ammo. The head comes right off when cleaning. Making sausage this week.

I have managed to shoot two or three hogs after I have started packing up to leave and like you, I am leaving when I am very tired and figure I can't stay awake well enough to hunt. Shooting a hog will wake you right up, yes?



Good Job!
