Live from the panhandle

Live from the panhandle - 06/19/16 03:44 AM

Drove up today and leaving tomorrow. Plan was to check and fill feeders then hog hunt through the night. Camera showed hogs coming in to feeder way before dark and all through the night. Hogs rarely move during daylight here so figured I would try to get 2 hogs with one shot and it happened. Sal was in front and boar was behind, shot entered sals left shoulder"she must have moved forward right before the shot because I placed it at her neck" exited through her neck and hit the boar square in the noggin.got them to quartered before dark and now setting at the rubbing post with the pig pipe under the full moon, all my spots have green lights but with the full moon I can see clearly through the scope as if it was day. Gonna try the 9mm with laser at this spot as the wind is in my favor. 16 round clip with another backup 16 round clip. Wish me luck.

Had a loan boar come in behind me and pick up my scent. He was gone before I could grab the gun. Just heard some pigs fighting at the pond. To far away though.

Well as soon as I layed down I heard some hogs munching on the wild plums. This fat girl stepped out of the thickett and spine shot behind the neck. Took a shot at another of equal size farther off but pretty sure I didn't connect.

After a few hours of sleep it is now pouring down rain but I'm sure a few will slip through this morning.

That's awesome. I plan on trying to take a pig this year with my Glock 21.
