    6 seasons hunting, second time at this location. Finally put it all together, caught this guy out with enough light to make a great shot. Stalked from the woods above my buddies property into his field using trees, patches of tall grass and a shallow draw. ~40 yard shot, double lung, clipped the bottom of the heart. Hog ran about 60 yards. ~250 pounds.

    No joke! Tore through my pants, thermals and sock when we attempted to heave him into the side by side.
