I sat from 7pm to 5am that's when a big sounder of pigs came in. Surprisingly they went right past the feeder and focused on where I sprayed the scent blocker HUI. There were at least 4 big sows and a ton of small pigs prob 20 or more. I was 50 yds away on the ground tucked into some cedar trees and shot this awesome looking sow when all hell broke out. Unexpectedly the entire sounder turned and ran straight at me. All I could see through the NV was pigs running full speed and crashing through trees all around me. I emptied the last 14 rds in my mag at point blank range and missed them all. I think this was prob the most exciting hog hunt over ever had and the best rush I've had since my last deployment

Good job on the sow.

Well done my friend. Remember next time the sounder is coming at you, you have to go into John Wayne style on them with the 6.8 in one hand shooting from the hip and your M&P in the other and rely on your Bug Asault instinct shooting to take charge!

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.

What no choking to finish off the pig video? Sounds like a fun hunt
