I just read this through for the first time, and I can't thank you enough for sharing your story, the pics and video. I was right there with you the whole time. You went about it with determination and ethics, and you should be proud of your accomplishment. I was sorry to hear that your son lost such a nice knife, not to mention the sentimental value attached to it, and then elated to hear that you found it. I'm happy for you Jerry, congratulations.    :thumbsup:   Thanks again for sharing a great hunt with us.

I've killed several in the 300# range, but i've never seen anything like that monster! Bet that was a job getting him out of the woods!

From watching and reading, I almost feel what you felt. Great, great job. The hunt, the kill, the experience, the feelings. You shared it all.
Excellent job.

TTT FOR those that have contacting me looking for the story.  

I still drive by where I hunted him and think of this great animal.  I sure miss hunting him.

Great story! My company is moving me to Texas next summer, and I've been dreading the move, but this story has helped get me excited to try some hog hunting.  Well told!

I bet there are a ton of emotions that go with driving by that place.  I know guys who hunt a certain deer all year.  When they get them, there is a sense of accomplishment, but also a sadness that the journey is over.  I could feel both emotions while reading this post.
