Hello all. My name is Dan and even though I live in Atlanta, the in laws have a bunch of property in OK. I try to head out there at least three times a year to visit and give my boys plenty of time with the grandparents (and of course get in plenty of shooting and bass fishing).
My oldest is 12 and a pretty good shot. I had promised him a chance at a hog once he could consistently group shots at 100 yards with my 6.8. Two evenings ago we saw a decent boar under the lights and I let him take the 85 yd shot. The hog was almost broadside, facing just a little away so I had him place the shot just behind the shoulder blade. 120 grain sst went in and exploded on the inside of the opposite shoulder. Hog was DRT and I was proud as can be. I would say 160 to 175#.
