19 Hogs Down Friday Night

19 Hogs Down Friday Night - 01/14/18 04:56 AM

Dave had a couple of his buddies over to hunt and I got to tag along. Both guys were hunters, but neither had hog hunted or hunted at night before, much less with thermal. We started off with a brief orientation on how the gear works, countdowns, shot discipline, etc. and headed out to hunt. It was chilly and there was a decent breeze most of the night, but that just made for good hunting. Having access to a lot of wheat fields also helped quite a bit.

Great shooting. Always amazes me when they drop and then get up and run.

That hog that got back up was a surprise. He initially hit the ground so hard it looked like he bounced!

Good shootin' guys!

Good shooting! If that doesn't get the blood pumping, I don't know what will.

I love my thermal but it’s an art to shoot them on the run with the lag time. Great shootn.

Nothing on this planet pisses me off more....except maybe liberals.

Good shooting guys, I always love a good stalk.

So that explains the looong lead ! I've wondered about that as I don't lead them nearly as much with my NV. I'm usually closer too.

NV has lag as well. Distance and speed explain the long lead.
