Terry, congrats bud!  Sounds like a very "fun" day... funny how once it is over you block out the burning lungs, and sore back.  ;)  

I fondly remember an 18 hour pack out of a pair of Caribou as a "fun" day also.  ;)

Thanks for sharing with us, and that is one great hog and a true trophy!

Nice hog Terry!! Congratulations!!!!
Just think if you had shot that one in Florida you wouldn't have had a single hill to drag it up!
That's the nice thing about hunting down here. But it sure makes it hard on a fellow when he goes north and suddenly has to contend with non level terrain.
Congrats!

Now how in the WORLD did I miss this one??? Good on ya bro: great story and a mighty fine trophy in any location...especially for Cohutta. I've seen them that big there but only from a distance; never even CLOSE to a shot on one that size.

I KNOW that was a heck of a drag, heck I have a hard enough time hauling just my fat but up and down those draws without a hog attached! I know I'd have boned one out right there...I'm just lazy. Send me Keith's # so I can invite him on my next foray up there...just in case    :D

Great story! I for one recognize a trophy. I used to hunt Cohutta for grouse a lot back in the 90's and I never even saw a hog.Or a bear for that matter. Congrats!

That's my kind of trophy right there.
I know, I know...duct tape a knife and some meat bags to a frame pack, at all times ready to go.  Man he does look dapper after that bit of work.  See what happens when you show him some Kryptonite...something fishy here.

Sorry...been busy....

Broadhead performance.....I shot a hog with it and it died....worked flawlessly.  :D

Seriously....the Abowyer is a tank, and I shot it with the WIDE Abowyer head.  The hit
was lower on one side than the other cause I was downhill...and being that the entrance wound was
only a 1/4 of the way up the body that made for a great drainage opening.  Again, it was
not a 'goodie box' hit as it passed through the mid section.  Again, I did not inspect to see what all was hit as I was more interested in saving the meat.

The head was very sharp as I filed it with a fine tooth grobet and it was so sharp that I
didn't even want to sleep in the same house with it .  The head was also still sharp
after the pass through...all it needed  was to be re-nocked to the string.

Thanks again for the comments...I'm ready to go back that's for sure.   :jumper:
