Last night was like all my hunts so not much to tell. I spot them with thermal, make the stalk and shoot them. Only difference is one of these is the biggest I've killed in a while. The moon was to my back, lighting me up and I was out of hay bales to hide behind so I had to take a further than normal shot @ 120 yards. He measured 46" so 260 lb and had cutters over 2".

Your killing me Eric! Nice job! I see by your shirt, it was getting a little warm by the second hog. You need to take a break and let me kill some for you. Lol
 
The smaller one was actually first and it was warm. Around 1:00 it cooled off and the big'n came out just before 3:00
 
Some nice cutters on that big boy, congrats
 
I see you don't have the new slayer with you yet. Do you need me to break it in for you? I won't charge you for it. :)
 
Very nice Eric. Congrats
 
Good hogs. The only thing we need is videos, so time to change the scope setup lol.
 
Nice!

Did u have to track the big one and where did u hit him
 
Dave, my goal is an L3 LWTS but that may take a little while.

Blake, I hit him in the front shoulder the first shot. He bolted but was injured. Because of the hay bales he made it about 30-40 yards before I could get the second shot on him that one was right in front of the shoulder.
 
Very nice. Good lookin' cutters too.
 
what do you have ahead of the scope?

What do you think of it?
 
Thank ya sir!

BRD as lawman said it is a L3 PVS-24. It's a small light weight clip-on NV for the 4x magnification range.
 
thanks, what do you think of it?
 
I like it because it is so small and light. Plus you can use on any day optic that has a rail in front of it. The draw back is that in really lowlight situations you need an illuminator because the front objective is on the smaller side. On a good night you can push them to 6 maybe even 8x on the scope but your resolution will suffer.
 
Are Digital and thermal OK day time and no NV is? making the clip ons desireable?
