I saw the photo and read about it last week on the CNN web sight. OK maybe not 1000LBs, but the biggest damn pig I ever saw. I guy who shot him was kinda standing in a hole so it does make the pig look bigger yet. I would have guessed 800/900 LBs and a good 8 feet long. Biggest one I have seen at my place was a 6/7 footer had to go 600LBs. It was in the rain after my cross hairs went away couldn't tell front from back. I crawled up on him and just placed one right in the middle. He just trotted off like nothing happened. My buddies look at me like I'm tellin a fishin story.

Oh well.
