team OinK tried to stage a comeback fri night. a lot riding on this hunt... lately we’ve been lucky enough to blame our failures on equipment, but now everything was fixed. we didn’t speak of it out loud, however, the pressure to perform loomed heavily over our heads.
first spot allowed us to ease back into the game. one hog... not too easy, not too hard. barking dog, cattle, and nervous hog making his way back to the trees. with no time to spare we double teamed his ass (no scram – not what you’re thinking). i just went for a general butt shot, but OinK tends to go right for the nutz... dead center too. i may have jumped the shot... just a little.
we hoped it would slow down his escape, but even better... he turned and gave of us a gallery of shots away from the cows... well away from most of them.
so far so good. the scope didn’t black out and the superbolt didn’t blow up in my face. over the course of the night, i will blow through about eighty 100gr accubonds in the 6.8. OinK (the smarter half of the team) is shooting 125gr bal tips in a 308. i don’t recommend getting in the way of one of these.... even if you’re a dirt clod. more pics and vid on the way...
