2012 St Judes Hog Hunt.( HEAD IS HOME )
« on: August 15, 2013, 04:01:00 PM »
I finally got to pick up my hog head from Dad. He does European mounts with beetles. This hog was taken on my St Judes hunt with Ray Hammond. Here are a few pics . Hope you enjoy looking at it as much as I have. By the way thanks again Ray.

I can tell you Dad is very picky with his beetle buisness. When I picked it up he told me there was a little place that he couldn't get to is liking. After I rolled it around a few times he showed it to me. I had to really look to see it. The spot is about the size of a nickel. I think it turned out perfect myself.

I am sure this old pig had a sore mouth. Four of its lower teeth have big cavities in them.
