Title: I hesitate to post
Post by: Pat B. on April 04, 2013, 10:29:00 PM
But luck was with me again this evening.

I went for a walk and happened to see a small group of pigs. I had the wind so went to intercept immediatly. As I closed in they appeared to be feeding towards me so I stopped beside some thick brush and waited. Nothing fancier that than. The came closer and I was able to pick off a sow..  I've been blessed with opportunities lately.

Wow, can you say, "ham and eggs"? Congrats and don't hesitate to post on something like that. Those of us who live in areas that can't hunt like that, need your stories and successes. We don't have any piggies like that around here.

Pat I love the way you just pop up with a post every few weeks with another hog and a Howard Hill longbow, taking a hog like a real man.  Then after your initial post you just kind of disappear until a few weeks later and pop up with another picture and story.  Would love to know where in Texas you are hunting.  It's a big state but if you happen to be in my neck of the woods, Granbury, I would enjoy meeting you sometime.

Pat, Never hesitate to post pix of your hunts here bud....

After all, without guys like you and some others that are willing to share pix and stories of their hunts, Trad Gang would be just another boring "trad archery" site.

It's what makes us the best "TRAD HUNTING" site on the planet...please continue to share everything!

Congrats on another fine shot and hog    :clapper:
