Friday night turned out to be a dusk to dawn hunt that was not at all as expected. We were supposed to go out with a new landowner who had invited us to come take care of his hog problems and he came down sick at the last moment. In the mean time, one of Dave's other landowners reported hogs being back and so we hunted Dave's regular properties. We started off staging ourselves on a spot where we could watch part of one property and see the property across the road with the recent hog issues. Inside of 10 minutes we were off to our first hunt and the whole night continued like that with with very little down time between hunts, lots of stalking, shooting, searching for and collecting the dead, getting some water, and starting over. The night wasn't without issues. I had a double feed after an administrative mag change that ruined on hunt for me. We had occluded views due to trees and high grass. In one case we had to drag hogs out across a deep ravine. The knee-high grass burrs (stickers) were especially fun and would find their way into unpleasant places when you kneeled down in them. Even so, I haven't had this much fun or worked this hard in a long time.

Thst was some good shooting in the second video. I need to work on running shots on pigs. Your videos have helped a lot of folks with tactics. Like which pig to shoot first and what not.
Keep it up, it is good entertainment

That last group certainly presented a target-rich environment! Nice going all around.
I have two unwritten rules: 1. 2.

I find myself watching your lead on the running shots. I think it helps me when I do get on a sounder and follow up shots are presented. Thanks for sharing.
