Hunting at the ranch this weekend. From our big blind at 160y, family of 15 or so comes in from the east about dusk. Sighted in on a 100 lb piebald(sp) first but then saw a dominant boar roll in and run the rest off. He was a monster (by STex standards) and was a good 10" taller than the rest of the group.

Lined up the new bolt gun (175SMK's) and BOOM. Pulled the shot a bit high but hit him right behind the ear. DRT.

Felt at least 250lbs maybe around 300.

Cutters measured around 2.5"

Enjoy.

I love how Texans like to show off their pictures of pooping off hogs. These things need to be shot though. They are a varmint of exponential proportions.

I live in farm country in CNY. The ferals are coming; reportedly already up to around Binghamton NY. That's just a couple of hours East of here.

Re: Hunting at the Ranch- Pig Elimination

Last year me and my nephews were deer hunting had a few deer coming in and then they stopped and looked back in the brush i told them you know the drill change rifles out 1 has the bolt we have ar's, i had to shoot over a young bucks head to kill the lead boar, the first time we did this i thought the deer might not come back but they they do this has been going on for years they run deer off and root up anything we plant. I live for shooting feral hogs!!!

Man, yall are some hardcore bastards....lol. FYI, had the kid shooting off a bit too tall of a rest at that time. Pulled the bipod of my bolt gun after pic was taken. Proper form was attained....

I wish all kids were cool like that. Good family times go a long way, and that's a sweet hog. Most kids these days would rather have an Iphone and some wifi.
