One For Doc

[Ryan Campbell]

I killed this sow on my friend Doc Gunn's place on the Brazos River near College Station, TX.
Doc is pretty much home bound now, he's 87 and doesnt get around like he used to.
The river has been up all summer and the hogs have been in his pasture and tearing up his grass field pretty bad. Doc pastures horses and needs the income from the fees he charges people so the hogs were hurting him.
Doc grew up in the great depression and doesnt waste a scrap of meat, Doc will keep scraps of meat I would normally get rid of. He was also a Veterinarian surgeon as a younger man so he critiqes my work as I'm skinning/dressing the hog or deer as the case may be.
I shot this one with my .308 using a 155gr Hornady.

Hey RC , we are practically lease neighbors. I hunt with a group of guys in Wheelock, just north of College Station off of OSR. We are covered up with pigs, got a report today that my buds killed 5 this last weekend and saw about 80. I have seen this many before on this lease so I feel it is accurate, so having said that I am packing for long weekend in Wheelock to brush up on my bow shooting.

Feedwatcher,
I go throught wheelock all the time. I have another place I hunt near Franklin, just to the north of you. There are some good deer in that area. It doesnt have the reputation of South Texas or the hill country but I've seen some nice bucks come out of there.

Thanks to everyone for the kind words. Doc is a good old man. It's sad to see his generation leaving us so rapidly, there's so much to learn from them.
