More Hogs and Coyotes

[Double Naught Spy]

First hunt, not too bad, but had a fail to feed due to a corroded case that did not want to leave the magazine. Before the next hunt, I pulled all my other cartridges from the magazine and scrubbed them thoroughly with a copper mesh scour pad.

Second hunt, my newest property. Lots of hogs, but definitely trying to make sure that the landowner's cattle are not endangered or look to be endangered by my shots (long chat with landowner before gaining access to property).

And yes, I missed a perfectly stationary, giant hog on a shot for which there was no great rush. :mad:

Thanks for the video. I admire your ability to patiently wait for the best shot. I can hardly stand to watch'em tearing up my property. I usually take the biggest hog(sow if possible) as soon as it presents a "reasonable" shot. I've even done a few "Texas Heart Shots" So you missed one, no big deal. It's not easy to get steady after stalking several hundred yards, with adrenaline pumping. I appreciate your "work" and videos. Thanks again, Gary

P.S. I'm going out in about 30 minutes to see what I can find. I told my wife it's your fault

DNS,

900yards through all the cow pats... My hat goes off to you Sir. At least you got something for all the boot cleaning.

Always enjoyable and appreciated videos.

Went out last night and found a sow with at least a dozen piglets right in the midst of about 40 deer 400 to 500 yds away, thru mesquite saplings , and cactus, and bull nettle etc. Fortunately she wandered off a ways from the piglets and deer, but was headed for a brushy wooded area. Got to within 100 yds. Knelt to try to get steady, lined up the shot, and then, just as I got on target my foot slipped in the soft sand and BOOM....before I was ready. As I regained my posture, I looked and she was laying there kicking !!! I looked up to the sky and silently said, Good shot, Thank you LORD . Took a couple of wild shots at the tiny piglets as they were running off, but didn't hit anything but sand. I had to put two more rounds to the head before the sow stopped breathing, so all the trauma was in/around the head. The pics aren't too good but I put'em in anyhow. She was big and fat, was either full of milk, or another batch of pigs.
