    I saw these guys on my lunch break. Tomorrow I'll have my bow at lunch trying to kill Thursdays lunch! A dozen piglets, 1 boar and 2 sows. biggest was about 150 lbs. big pigs ran before I could get a pic. These little ones will fit a smoker well!

    Bowhunting on your lunch break...that ranks right up there with a "Nooner" :)

    Good Luck!

    I take it this was the place across the highway from work where you were just granted permission to hunt? I've been curious how that was panning out. Nice pics and good luck tomorrow!

    That's awesome, Greg. Good luck to you.

    I inquired into a SC hog hunt, today. If I can do it during the spring, I'm probably gonna do it.

    Take photos, when you take one!

    I plan to take a pic with Texas Stadium, (former home of the Cowboys), in the very close background!

    I'm sure glad we don't have pigs here, but sometimes I think it would be a fun way to pass the offseason. Stick em bud.

    I brought the Marquis and some boots & camo coveralls to work today. I'll try to whack one. I get an hour for lunch but I can stretch it if I have a tough blood trail. Only hitch is I have to invite the boss to the BBQ!
