Anyone that knows me knows that i rag on my SIL. Well he has been ragging me about not going hunting lately so i decided i would try to get a pig last night. I tell him i got to feed my grandchildren cause they are starving to death where he promptly ask me if i have seen them lately. Well i have had a couple of lone boars coming in to eat that are on my removal list so i figured i would try for one last night. Here's the way things went.
Arrived at barn at 5:14. Walked the 300 or so yards to my stand and got seated. Made a play on words for friends and then waited about 5 minutes. Heard what i thought was a deer easing thru the woods behind me. Couple of minutes later this, what appeared to be a small hog, came out of the woods. It was a lone boar and that was what i had come for but it just didn't look as big as it did on the game cam. Well i watched it for a few and decided nothing else was coming out so i took the shot and boy was i surprised when i go down and went over to him. Guess not having the pigs showing up every day kinda messed up my perception of big and small.
for some reason it isn't doing the imbed video
