Thermal Shotgun strikes again. This was one seriously tough sow. First slug hit her in the shoulder and she went down, I watched her for about a minute and she didn’t move. I began walking towards her and got about 30 ft away and heard a gasping sound and I shined my white light on her. She was still laying on her side so I was just gonna give her a minute or so to expire and then she jumps up and runs right past me. I turned the thermal on squired target and fired but hit her high and it just skimmed her back. I then took off after her, I would run 30 or so yards the. Find her in my thermal but couldn’t get a shot. After doing this a couple times I finally got an opening and hit her again this time by the back hip taking her down. This time I gave her plenty time to die lol. When I inspected her the first shot was slightly high but in the shoulder and I was very surprised she got up from it.
