James, I use a similar strategy for deer hunting and squirrel hunting. If at first you don't find them then just stop at a nice spot and get comfortable. After a while the deer (or whatever) will become curious and come to see what's wrong.
Looks like your hunting partner may be more advanced in his approach.

John, if you could have caught that piglet, his momma might have given you a shot.   :)

Don,John would have done better with a couple those pigglets squeelin in his pockets than that handfull of corn.   :biglaugh:  

Tommy told me the only reason he had to lay down was those darn shoes just wore him out.  ;)

Man do I wish we had hog hunting close by here in Idaho!
You all are very fortunate to have such a good critter to chase with a bow!  Someday I'm gonna have to save up and do a hog trip somewhere!

First time I ever saw Tommy with shoes on. Whats the deal with that? I thought he was a bare foot man . DB

Don we hunted farther south the first part of the week.He walked the dikes barefooted and never blinked at snakes,gators or the sharp rocks the dikes were covered with.Got out of the truck at this place and saw a spider about big as a quarter and he come unwound.  :bigsmyl:  

That boy hates some spiders and I showed him one on the ground and told him there were a bunch around there.He pulled out the shoes.  :biglaugh:   First time I have seen him wear then too.  :)

Great story and pics!!  Stories like this inspire me to keep the wheels in the closet and keep trying with the 'curve.
It's not about the kill but the experience.
