Was watching a spring from a tree stand. This boar came in accompanied by about 15 other hogs. Waited until this one stopped and turned broadside. Aimed low behind the shoulder and fired. At the shot the hog bang flopped. The bullet did not exit. This is my second hog of 2010 and my first killed this year with a muzzleloader.
The place where i killed this hog is only about 25 miles from my normal stomping grounds but some the hogs there are vastly different. These are the ugliest hogs anywhere.
Boy thats a wooly rascal for sure, congratulations on your hog.

It's a good thing you shot that ugly rascal before it had time to breed. If we have to put up with wild hogs, at least they should be good looking wild hogs. Nice shooting Falcon. Them hogs must have warning pictures of you posted all over the place... run if you see the Falcon.

Ditto as Sabotloader said, I wish we had something else besides Coyotes to Hunt after Deer Season ends, but then I'd never get any work done! LOL. Long story short, this Deer Season a local guy, (neighbor by one of our Hunting Lands) shot and killed a Wild Bore. He called us that night to come and see it, along with the local newspaper as there are NO Wild Hogs here. Sure enough it was a Hog. He said he was on his way back from his stand when it came running at him so he shot it.
Shorter story long....after the news hit the local paper a friend who lives near by called him to tell him it WAS HIS PET PIG! it escaped about a month ago. The story gets better......after he felt like a real ass he even felt worse as his story was the pig came at him, well when we were there checking out the pig it was shot in the ass, so how does a pig get shot in the ass when it's comming at you??? We all bashed him saying the pig was just happy to finally see someone and was hungry, and when it seen his ugly face it ran the other way....then he shot....LOL!
Anyway Nice Ugly Pig you got there, hope it tase a-lot better than he looks!
