Shot an enormous hog
 
Man I shot the biggest hog I have ever seen this weekend. We have killed several off of this place but none to the effect of this one. I would say he was at least 350-400 lbs. A huge boar with about 4 inches of cutters sticking out each side of his mouth. I felt that I made a good shot even though I didnt get a pass threw. Penetration looked good but those of you who hoghunt know that even with a pass threw on a large hog theres hardly any blood. I shot him around 7:00 and it began to drisle around 9:00 so I got down and began to track him. Like I said, no blood so it was slow and easy on the tracking. To make a long story short I trailed him to a flooded DU pond on an adjacent property. His tracks went in but none came out. I got a boat and proded around to no avail. I went back Sunday to look but found no sign of him. Theres a big gator living in that pond that so I figure she took care of him for me. Sorry for the long post Im just still feeling sorry for myself.

Yeah, one that big is more for show than supper. Now you get one of those 60-70 lb pigs and put him in the ground and you'll slap your momma its so good.
