I'm back home in Nevada now and I'm going back in 3 weeks...

My son said if animal rights activists find out we're hunting there they will show up and start a bunch of crap...

[DIANEB]

My husband made this for me...
It's the empty case I shot the pig with...
He said it will bring me good luck on my next hunt...

Congratulations! Wish I had a place to hunt hogs, but guess I should be glad they're not here.

DianeB,
were you able to do any Necropsy to see what the 120gr. TTSX did internally? were you able to recover the TTSX?
curious,

p.s. nice shooting. Hope you get some more while your there.

My son looked in the brain, he said it was mush and found one tiny piece of copper and part of the blue tip...He the said the exit hole behind the ear was less than a quarter inch in diameter...

[DIANEB]

We have to fill out one of these forms for every pig we shoot...

[tdbru]

i would guess, perhaps wrongly, that this is only required if you kill the feral pig on public ground? or do people getting rid of feral pigs on their own property also have to fill out this nonsense? I would think people removing these pests from there own property don't bother with this silliness.
regards,

It's part of the permit, we can shoot as many as we can...
On private property we don't need to buy tags with the state permit...The state just wants to know how many pigs are on the owners land...

THAT IS indeed a work of art! Better even than a rabbit's foot for many reasons.

Also, a good conversation supplement should one get pulled over.

Some states have Hunter Harassment laws, might check where you are hunting?

We're on private property with a state permit that allows us to shoot as many pigs as we can...
The only thing we don't like is that a state park is next to the ranch...
Also the permit allows us to hunt at night as long as we call the county sheriff 24 hours ahead of time...

Yep we've been married for 48 years this year...

+1 If they harass you then they trespassing it sounds like gtg

The property owner put no trespassing signs all along that fence line... When he hunted the ranch he had a few people arrested for trespassing...
He's not into pig hunting he only hunts deer...

Nicely done on your first hog. Get ready, it’s addicting and you’ll want more, much more.

And that’s a nice little good luck charm for your key ring.

Thanks but it's not my first hog I shot 2 in Coalinga a few years ago...
Yes, the key ring charm is very cool...
