Hey everybody!!

I am hoping to get caught up posting about our trip to Mr. Marty's.

It took forever and a day to get there. Then it wasn't what I expected. It was much nicer!!!

The swamp buggy was nice and high and tall and fun.

You're doing fine, Miss Mills. Nice looking black pig there. Love the picture showing all the rain gathering on the bottom of your gun barrel - very descriptive imagery.   :thumbsup:

See.... CRS disease isn't just foer  adults!!!!


The story is we didn't see a hog in rthe stand that am.

But Marty had a plan. We went riding in the buggy checking feeders. We pull into a long lane between the eucalyptus trees and spot several hogs under the feeder at the end of the road.

After a brief flurry of getting the 308 and the shooting sticks we were off. We ran down the road in a crouch. We cut the distance to 100 yards. We stopped and  had Mills look through the scope. She couldn't see over the bushes.

The hogs were fixin to leave so we hurriedly moved again. She still couldn't see!!!!

Finally we got where she could see and she took care of the rest.

WAY TO GO Lady Algebra!

Looks like some mighty-fine BBQ right there!

Enjoy and thank you for supporting the kids at St Jude's!

Shoot straight, Shinken

The evening sit was hog free though we did see assorted other fauna.

So the next morning we were ready for some action. The first hogs came right after Marty and Don left on the buggy. It was still dark so I shined my headlamp on them and they didn't budge.

Problem was they were to our far right and we were set up to shoot out front.

We were able to adjust, much to the chagrin of the hogs.
