The guy I go with had a friend lose a testicle and about a 12" gash to the bone, just missed the femoral artery by an inch.I had to chase down a hog through about 50 yards of slew,,didn't even think about the mocs or gators till after I cut the hog,,Ray (the guy I go with) says he killed about a dozen gators in that hole!!!! I won't mention his name, but he belongs to one hell of a huntin club!! Has about 30 dogs,,deer, catch, bay, and coon, Loses about 2 a year to the pigs. He has 2 bigboars locked up for training,,neither one has 2 complete ears!! Yep,addicting as hell, but gettin kind of old for that kind of huntin,,I gota disability crossbow license, so I'll be hunting with that this year,,,never seen a snake in Avon yet,,,BUT everyone else has!! Reb, what part of Florida are you livin,,oh yea, I do hunt with an Excalibur!!
