Beaten, Embarrassed, then Vindicated

I secured permission to hunt this one property for Monday. No hogs showed up. This is a property that is about a mile long, but not terribly deep. 95% of it can be scanned from the road. I went by several times and saw nothing.

Tuesday morning, the landowner calls and asked if I shot any hogs because the area next to the house got hit overnight. ERRRRRRR. Apparently, they came after 2:00 am. So I said I would be back.

Tuesday night, spied this guy, but I don't think he did all the damage. It was a very calm night with little ambient noise, so I did not approach any closer...Oh, and then the cops cops showed up to find out what I was doing. Fortunately, I didn't have hogs in the field at the time.


Thursday night was blustery. I had spent the first part of the evening hunting else where and swung by to check this property to seem if I could find the culprits responsible for the damage. I ended up shooting at these from within 15 yards of where I killed the hog on Tuesday night.


Checked by last night and all was quiet. Maybe I missed them again. Maybe they are gone for a while.
 
Happy landowner ! Seven of those bastages gone, including two working factories! Hero status attained. And, warm cookies for the kiddos too. Nice work.
 
Pretty dang good results!
Nice shots on the runners, and piglet bonuses to boot.

You're doing great, Keep After 'Em!
 
That’s good shooting! Maybe you discouraged them for a while. They figured out when you’re around pigs are going to die!
 
We need to confiscate your AR and give you a single shot 410.



Just so's there's a few left for the rest of us.
