Default Junior has the luck of the Irish

My son and I went out this weekend and he scored another hog. Funny twist to this is, he was sitting in a pop up ground blind watching the feeder. The hogs came up on his right thru the thick brush. The piglets ( about 15-20 lbs each) walked up to the ground blind and started nosing around it and one started to go underneath it into the ground blind. My son was caught off guard and he was like "what the heck". He wasn't sure at first if it was a large hog or a piglet so initially he was thinking "oh S&^t which one is trying to get in here.
As they fed at the feeder he shot this one behind the left ear with the .223 that he built. Bullet passed thru and left a dime sized hole on the way out. Legs go up pig goes down.

No he let the piglets go. The piglets were actually with another sow that was there. We have her and her piglets on game cam, have for the last couple of months. After he got out of the ground blind one of the piglets came up to him right at his boot tip.
