Been a while since I been here, life got busy.
But that doesn't mean I haven't been hunting.
So last nite went hunting. The moon was SOOOOO HUGE!!
it was almost day lite at 2 am.
So I took my dad and my friend hunting last nite.
My dad was to my left about 10 feet away and I was next to my friend.
My dad has some cheap Gen 1 NV that does really well.
So he was looking thru it.
He said he saw a huge black cat behind the feeder, then we saw a lot of piglets run out.
One actually comes running at us, but not mad. It was playing, and got withing 10 yards of us.
I thought we were busted.
But we weren't.
I knew this litter.
The mother of this litter is mean, lots of game camera pics of her tossing other animals around.
So I tell my friend if he sees her, kill her.
But my dad stands up as I'm about to tell him the same thing.
He puts on his light on his gun.
So I light up the area with flash lights so they can see, I didn't take a gun I wanted my friend and dad to shoot.
My friend shoots and scores,.I see the body go down and squeezing started.
My dad shoots and nothing.
But the pigs do something odd and cross in front of us.
So a few more shots go off and then my dad, let the rant begin, starts walking into my friends line of sight.
I'm screaming at my dad to move watch it.
And he walks into the way of the shot.
I start yelling at him to move cause we really could have killed 1 or 2 more.
Finally he walks back wards towards us, then he really pissed me off.
My friend raised his gun to shoot and my dad was behind the muzzle of the barrel, then he walks RIGHTS IN FRONT OF THE BARREL.
I had to yell and yank him out of the way.
I was dumbfounded.
My friend was just about to pull the trigger.
After I pulled him, my friend told him he almost shot him.
I'm still pissed.
It would have been quick, would have entered the back of his head at the base of his spine.
Just so mad, my.son I would understand.
And then the topper?
He tells me what I should have told him to do, drop.
But we were.shooting at the ground, so I don't know what that would have done.
I don't know if I could ever go out with my dad again.
If he's this careless, I don't know if I can trust him.
Moral of the story.
Be aware of your surroundings.
This could have been disastrous, we're not playing canasta! !
