Man up top...Jerry Russell

[wapiti792]

Congrats again to Jerry on a BEAST of a hog. Kong is a special critter. I can't wait to hunt bears with you again my friend. Way to go on that once in a lifetime animal

Congrats, for sure.  What a beast.

I guess that would be the opposite of Pocket Porker.

Congrats Jerry, Incredible story  and write up.

Kong! What an appropriate name for an amazing animal. I spoke with Jerry the other day for a little while trying to put a bear hunt together. What a great guy and with a lifetime of knowledge. Very helpfull and goes out of his way to meet your expectations! Looking forward to the start of another journey! Thx, Jerry!!

Mr Russell, two thumbs up on Kong !!!! Really enjoyed reading the story and have done so about a dozen times....I'm figuring I'm gonna have to come down and hunt with you all some time.

Had a friend recently pose a question regarding what is the difference between the unknown committed hunter and a professional hunter. My response surmised that there could be considerable differences; however my explanation landed miserably short.

Mr. Jerry Russell’s ‘Story of Kong’ is the epitome of hunting professionalism.

Well done, Jerry. Not only a great hog and story, but an incredible quest.

[Jerry Russell]

Thanks guys.  I feel like Kong deserved the picture up top.  He was a rock star hog.

I first meet Jerry several years ago when we started talking about hunting in Africa. Several conversations later we were booked to Namibia for a 10 day planes game hunt. I remember setting in the airport in Johannesburg waiting on our flight to Windhoek and Jerry starts telling me about this supper, large, smart, incredibly intelligent hog that he was hunting that he had named "Kong".
I have told him since that I thought he was a little over the top on his descriptions of how big and how smart this pig was. Several years go buy and several hunts together and the legend of Kong continued to grow.  
Well you have read the store and now I know that he was no exaggeration, he was the super hog.
As far as Jerry goes I have never met a more determined hunter and I am thankful  to call him friend and hope to spend many more night around the camp fire and hear the store of Kong retold.
We've got bear camp coming up in June so I wonder how the story can be translated to French.

Vous êtes si gentil John . l'histoire de Kong vivra éternellement autour de nos feux de camp .

[Jerry Russell]

I have no idea Stan.  It just spilled out and sounded smooth, lol.
