the first one.
So this weekend i went pig hunting for the first time. I was really interesting to me. Some of you know i have been brought into hunting through my friend's parents. My folks never hunted and there was never a gun into the house. So for the last couple of years i have starting out and learning to hunt.
I went deer hunting last month and didnt see a thing. but very peaceful very quiet. slow and relaxing.
well like i said i went pig hunting and it was cool. it is so exciting compared to deer. (granted i think deer will be more rewarding) but what a difference.
you can hear them in the bushes digging up the ground and snorting.....its a fucking gas. its action packed (considering you can get goared by one of the little bastards:) we are yelling to each other and running after them. (when a dear takes off just say later) but when a pig takes off......its like chasing your dog in the back yard....you kinda got a chance.
well this is how it went.......
we were starting our walk....5 of us.... jimmy was above me walking sideways on the hill. well i started to go to low so i had to crawl on my knees to get though a couple of pine trees.....and then i hear jimmy yell "chris 4 pigs coming your way!" i look up and three of them are rounding the tree infront of me. i thought to myself oh fuck....i have 3 hogs running right at me and im on my knees crawling through a fucking bush.....
so i raise up my rifle and just shot and missed....i didnt really even aim.....2 took off up the hill and one stayed on course. i fired agian and hit it. It took off down the hill and we found in the rivene...but it as still alive so i put it down.
as heartless people think hunters are there is nothing worse that seeing and animal suffer there is absolutely no pleasure in that aspect.
but anyways i my first pig. and my first big game.

Sweet! I wish we had wild pigs around here. I think it'd be as fun as the predator hunting we do now.
robert i think you would love it.

yay i'm glad for you! matt went last week and didn't get anything yet. he saw lots but didn't shoot them.
They have hunts for wild pigs in the state parks here on occasion because their numbers are so high.
A friend of mine has killed two or three each time. He loves it - and the meat is pretty good too, especially roasted.
