Last Hunt of 2016 - Badger and Hogs!

It was chilly with gusting winds that would blow you off target. Even so we managed to get a few hogs and I managed to get my first badger as well. I have some unresolved issues with the badgers at this pecan farm. On a previous visit, I stepped into a deep badger hole and managed to do a face-plant as a result. Tonight, I evened the score.

Overall, it was a lot of fun. About the only times things got serious was when we actually set up to shoot. It was a great way to finish out 2016!

Nice. A badger is on my list of critters to kill

A badger is about as stinky a creature as you will find, right up there close to skunk.

Well, they are closely related to skunks (same family: Mustelidae), but you know, I had never handled one before. It is definitely a unique odor unlike anything I have smelled before.

Badgers also have a bad attitude. That last hog did his own version of a face plant, nice shooting.

Great shooting congrats on badger

Way to go!

Good deal Brian. I had one last hunt and dropped one pig on new years ever myself. Had a lot of fun.

congrats
