Well we made it back from Texas with 9 hogs shot, 6 recovered. I shot 2 with a 243 and lost them. I also shot one with my 50 cal M/L. Droppedit in it's tracks.Great trip. We did a little bass fishing and I caught a 6 pound 2 oz bass. Dang it, the files are too large to post picts. I'll work on it later.
Dont worry about the ones you never recovered there are plenty of God's creatures that enjoyed the free meal
I would have thought the same thing, but most of the big ones I shoot and leave laying, the coyotes and buzzards won't touch, either. And I never knew either to be that picky.

I understand that the hogs are varmits and need to be shot, but I still have a tough time shooting an animal and not finding it. They even eat each other. We draggedsome ofthe remains out back and in an hour the otherpigs were allready eating them.

RE: Texas hog hunt
Excellent. Ive been out twice since Jan. and have seen nothing. They are tearing up my place, just dont seem to be there when they are. But then agian, ive gone out for an hour before dark, on one day. So i guess I havent really tried all that hard.
