The second morning of our hunt saw no action but a few animals spotted. Zoltal liked to wait until mid morning to stalk by that time most of the boar had bedded down for the day in their shallow scrapes or wallows. After 10 years working as a PH in this area he knows the forest like the back of his hand and all the likely spots to try depending on the wind.
We all went for lunch at mid day and soon after we was off out again on foot again. That afternoon I got busted on 2 stalks because of the wind constantly changing through the trees.
we carried on and eventually Zoltan spotted a grour feeding in the distance. He signaled me to make a stalk on them trying to cut across to get the wind right. after some hard stalking and zig zaging through the trees to keep up with the feeding Group i had a large sow with a Litter of piglets come feet away from me. She started snorting and she was not happy with me being there. I kept still until she moved off with her young. By this time one of the yearling pigs had come to see what was happening, not seeing any danger it turned to walk off. I quickly rose and took a pretty heavy quartering shot.
i was relieved to see my fletchings disappear where i looking.
