That's right, as Terry said above.....after Cade shot we could see him start looking behind him. Then he'd look at us, then back behind him. It was obvious there was something behind him and a minute later he looked at us with a concerned look on his face....then waved us over...
When we got to him, it was easy to see he was a little shook and wasn't comfortable standing there by himself! He said it sounded like there was a "huge hog" behind him!!!!
He wanted out!!!!
Remember....he's only 12yrs. old, and this is only 1/2hr into his first hog hunt!!!!!
We moved on and just kept running into hogs. I mean it was crazy!
About half way through the area that's called "The Bedroom", Cade whispered to me the quote of the hunt.... "THEY'RE EVERYWHERE!!!!"
As we neared the area of "Rob's Stand" with Terry on point, he stopped again and waved Cade up front...more hogs!

He never did get close enough for a shot...but what action he was having!
We continued on into "The Bottom"....
•
As we neared the newly relocated "Racetrack Stand" Terry through his hand up once again for us to stop.....the was a good hog at the feeder, and well hidden behind some cover for a stalk...game on again!!
But for whatever reason, Cade only got about 2 steps into his stalk when the hog decided to walk out from behind the cover out into the open and busted Cade...dang it!
We turned around and headed out...saw many more hogs. But no more shots for Cade.
What an incredible start to Cade's first hog hunt, it couldn't have started any better!!!!
At dark we headed for camp exhausted from travel and adrenaline.....1st campfire of the trip...

Cade would sleep very, very well...
