I'll Spill

Last winter, I was invited on a high fenced pig hunt. Not pigs, as in boars...Pigs. Domesticated pigs.

This took place in Northern MN. It costed 175$/2 person team. It was actually a contest, with twenty toal teams.You and you're partner take off and go after 3 pigs in a 40 acre fence. Two of the pigs were fair game, the other a "penalty pig" adding an additional 5 min to you're total time. You each take three arrows, every arrow launched you add 2 min to you're total time.

I went for a few reasons:

A) I wanted a pig to test out the new roaster my best friend and I made.
B) a pro-staffer from a reputable company invited us
C) There was a good cash prize (300$)
D) I figured it'd be good practice
E) The pigs were going to slaughter, anyway.

A few reasons I won't go back

A) The people there weren't my cup of tea. Actually, it was the first time I'd met all of them, and I hope I never meet them again. (Besides the dude who invited me)
B) Long drive
C) No sport involved, too easy, almost boring.
D) Been there, done the high fence thing, confirmed my prior thoughts on the whole deal.



We ended up winning the "contest" by a land slide. I didn't have much fun, but I got to roast a free pig. It was delicious. No more fences, for me.
