Well, as expected, timber crew is gone and the pigs are starting to hit the feeders more consistently...

Neither Preacher nor I have been out hunting since the end of deer season so they are relaxing a bit...but I have plans on silently taking one out on Tuesday.
My Bear rep is coming down for a night. Last time he shot a pocket pig and I've been making fun of him since...I would have shot it too, but since I can, I'm just having some fun at his expense.

A pocket pig would be a valued prize for me.

Would expect that from someone that has proudly harvested poults in the fall.

Took my Bear rep out on a pig hunt last night. As always we enter stands in the daylight just in case they are hitting at dawn. With my guard down, I entered the no name stand rather quickly and not as quiet as I should have only to bust some fatties from the pines surrounding the stand. They had been in there about 30 minutes before I got there and had cleaned the place out and were in the process of leaving no stone unturned when I sent them on their way without great alarm. Well, I said a few unpleasant things about myself and after spreading some more corn, entered my pearch. Both my rep and I were serenaded by pig fights and squealing all night long until about 9 P.M. when a small group of fatties chased a sow through my area. They knew something was up, but since they had love on their mind didn't hang around long enough to work out the details. I'm getting used to it, but it can be frustrating having any pigs...big or not in range and not being able to do anything about It. Unfortunately, even though the pigs came in close, Jeff (my Bear rep) didn't get an opportunity.
BigJim Pigs from last week pictures coming soon.

I also want to issue a warrant for the arest of this fella. Although he is not armed or dangerous, he is an annoying little bugger, although I expect him to be an annoying big bugger soon!
Really just a cool picture

The TG Wolf Pack lineup has required a suitable substitution. Tony Rodgers’ “Anthony Rodgers” work schedule has dictated that he must remain at the den and nurse the pups. The Wolf Pack is disappointed for him.

Tony Adair ‘Big Bear Adair’, a Bear Archery sponsored traditional archer and good friend of mine has become a team member of the TG Wolf Pack. We are excited that he was able to share in this adventure.

He loves shooting, trad hunting, and competition and is a fine archer, yet like all of us, is not immune to an occasional shot execution blunder.  I have an elevated level of confidence that he will shoot straight.

Welcome Big Bear Adair!

You bet Tom. I showed pics to a local coustomer this year who was schooling me on "how to bait pigs". He said they were awful fat for wild pigs.

I told him I had never experienced pigs so fat. But they are.
We have a good bit of agriculture in the area not to mention hundreds of acres of land that doesn't or barely gets hunted. Lots of acorns and plenty of peanut butter.

Going to get a truck load of peanut butter this weekend and dump about 6 barrels or so out at different feeders. My brother will be in for a couple weeks and I hope to put him on a hog or three.

Hmmmm,..... maybe I'll bring some jelly for that "peanut buttered pork". I'm getting hungry.

Ursa is anxious to be back in action and silence some of your "pests"     :bigsmyl:

I'm shooting that Buffalo every day now on my walk around course.
