No hogs for more than 2 weeks and nothing inside the feeder pen for the last two weeks, not even turkeys or raccoons. I had thousands of pictures of cattle walking by, but that was it until two nights before my hunt when hogs showed up. The also showed up the night before the hunt, both times after 8:00 pm which is when the feeder goes off. So I set up to watch the feeder from a distance and the hogs came early and many were under the feeder when it went off and they took off running, and not just a short distance. I managed to take one of the stragglers with ammo loaded by Chad at Custom Reloads of Dallas.

Never seen one jump straight up like that. Just about everything else...but never up like that one did, pretty cool.
Spartans ask not...how many, but where!

Nice gymnastic routine! Good shootin' and good video.
