To start off I bought a new home on a piece of property 2 weeks ago. Saw this hog first wens afternoon but the woman pulled in and yelled for me and spooked him off. Saw him again this morning at the feeder but when a buddy pulled in the gate he spooked. So this afternoon I got a table with a pillow and got comfortable. There is a feeder in the far back left corner of the pasture just under 400 yards. (You cannot see it in the pic) I had the 300 ultra so no problem. He was about 30 yards this side of the feeder and took one to the shoulder. Good size boar. Thought I would share. Sorry for the sideways pics. RAB help me out.

That is a neat setup. Good use of a pillow and blanket for a rest.

Nice shot Heck yeah it was. And as long as you ain't busting no glass with the big bang, you got it made.

you called it too!
If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.

Congrats man!!! There is nothing like hunting from your porch (living room when it's too cold for my lil one) is there? Nice place and nice shooting! Does and young bucks are all we ever see until it's dark most of the year. But during the pre-rut we see bucks all over the place and I'm sure your place will be the same. You know what they say.....hunt the does and Obama sucks!!!
