I hunted my local WMA this morning in the pouring rain. Had one bird gobble on the roost about 0720. Between the rain and my bad hearing I thought he was farther away than he was and ended up busting him off the roost.

Watched him fly further into the swamp and decided to go after him. About 400 yards in I stopped to call and was standing there listening. About 80 yards down the road I saw some movement from the left side of the swamp and 3 hogs crossed the road. I figured since I was cold and wet something was going to die today.

Put a little stalk on the hogs and ended up shooting him behind the ear with a 4x5x7 Nitro at 20 feet. Dropped him where he stood.

Kicked my butt getting him back to the truck. I'm figuring him in the 200-250 lbs range.




A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle.

Nice job!
Why shoot a 3.5"? Because they don't make a 4".
