Had my shot at the Title today
« on: February 14, 2010, 08:44:00 PM »
Y'all might remember Marty's last attempt at a 300 post thread. He failed... Again..."The only difference between closer and loser is the C"


Well I am too.. I had my chance at Uncle Gene's record this afternoon. Y'all remember the four or five hogs in one sit (depending on who you believe..Marty or the picture)

I got in the tree at 4:07. At 4:25 here came the hogs!!!!!!


 
The old order is passing. Swiftly receding into memory are the days of strong, earnest men who followed an atavistic yearning to pit their skills against wild animals.

I expected them to come from the other side of that stand in the top of the pic.

Instead they came from behind the camera.

The first bunch had these 2 sows all those choates and one boar hog. One of the sows was dry..... Bad day to be her.


My stand is to the right in the video. She was standing on the other side (left in the video) of the feeder from me. It was about 26 yards.

I drew touched anchor and hit the hair I was looking at.

Of course everything exploded out of there. While I was watching her leave I started the stopwatch on my Luminox.


Within 2 minutes I heard rustling in the leaves!!!!! I looked up and here came two different boars. And right behind them were the first group of hogs.

One of the boars was on the smallish side. The other one looked like he was about 130ish. But, that sapsucker had tushes sticking out 1.5 to 2 inches on either side.


As soon as he hit the opening he turned and faced me so I got a good look at those canines.( Is this a recurring theme with me or what?)
