I QUIT!
I went out yesterday evening scouting for new stand locations. Any time I go to my lease I also make it a hog hunting trip. Well, no more. I sweat my rear end off last night, I got ticks and chiggers, about a million mosquito bites, (I forgot my Thermacell),and I fell in a pretty nasty wallow trying to drag a dead hog out of it. I shot a sow that went about 100lbs, her litter ran off and I went to get her for a photo since it was too hot to think about saving the meat. Well I slipped in the mud and I ended up pretty messy, from shoulders to shoes! I did get the sow out but gave up on the pic. I didn't want to get my camera out of its ziplock bag. I'm sure glad I keep a change of clothes in the truck. I think I'm done hunting hogs until fall when the weather cools off.
