Been awful busy since I retired in December but I’m finally getting back after the hogs. Monday night I took the thermal and got one before dark and the other showed up an hour later. Then Wednesday night I decided to take the Wraith instead of the thermal. Hog shows up at the far feeder so I turn on the scope and don’t even need the IR. He’s under the feeder and I’m waiting on him to step out then the battery indicator starts dropping faster than the stock market. So I squeezed one off and he folded up,

It is surprising how many people I have dealt with that are retired and who have less free time than when they were working 50-60 hours a week, LOL. Excellent job on the piggies.

Excellent! up Well done.

I've only gotten a few these last few weeks. I can't figure if they've left the property, since it's so dry, or that I've educated them and they hate my corral traps. I'll always have some "residents" either way.

Just like Jesus, sometimes you gotta kill some hogs.

Don't they look nice napping on their side! Well done!


If you find yourself feeling useless, remember it took 20 years, trillions of dollars, and four presidents to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.

Sometimes the Universe puts you in the same situation again to see if you’re still a dumbass.

I retired a year ago and just hadn’t or made time to go trapping/hunting like I did when I was working. Went to a friends place to do a small job for him and saw these hogs. They were out there over an hour so on the way back I tried to do a stalk on them using my 9mm pistol. Might of hit one [Linked Image]
