Great photo taking Joe!!  Looks like your trip was a success despite the lack of blood.  Good for you, and hope you can break the hog jinx soon.  Thanks for taking us along.

Thanks for the story Marty. There is a grizzled out Hogzilla out there with your name on him !!!

Good read and better pictures, hope the gator hunting brought home the bacon-sorry couldn't resist.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

Great story and pictures. You really got me pumped for my hog hunt in central florida over labor day weekend.

Thanks for sharing. The pics really brought it to life. Never even thought of FL in regards to the hunting that it offered but I may have to re-think that!
