In July, 2007 i was sitting in a low stand at a water hole waiting for hogs to come in. A sow came by with her three big pigs and never stopped at the water hole.

Took a shot at the sow as she passed by at a range of 25-35 yards angling away. At the shot that sow did all kind of stuff that i hope to never see again. She repeatedly came off the ground: One time she was about four feet off the ground with her head pointed down at an angle. After about 20 or 30 seconds she hit the ground and was dead. The bullet did not exit.

All i could think about was Carlos Hathkock when he killed the NVA cobra sniper. The bullet hit the cobra sniper's rifle scope and the guy went into all kinds of contortions before he died.

Attitude: Angling away
Distance: 25-35 yards
Gun: CVA StagHorn
Powder: Two 50 grain Pyrodex pellets
Bullet: 240 grain .430 XTP
Primer: Winchester shotgun
