Looks like he has a good chance

That's great Patrick! Hope he has a great hunt bud

Hopefully, he will score and maybe the anticipation in and of itself will bring him much pleasure.

Thanks for the well wishes, guys. He connected on a 175lb sow tonight. He passed on the little guys and waited a few hours in the heat until the bigger hog came along. No pics, since it wasn't a trad kill. I was only posting because I was amazed at how brazen the little piggies were. Gonna try some spot-and-stalk if this weather ever breaks.

February is just around the corner... :rolleyes:
And way to go waiting out the sow! You have a Hunter on your hands!

Tell him congrats.

KentuckyTJ · June 10, 2011, 12:24:00 PM

Not to be critical but if you put the corn out in a vertical line perpendicular from the blind instead of horizontal would the pigs stand broadside instead of facing the blind?

On second thought what does it matter if you don't even have to be in the blind. Scratch that.

Hey Patrick you should have taken him to Stratford last weekend and you would have won him over..

pdk25 · June 10, 2011, 12:54:00 PM

I would have taken him but he didn't get into town soon enough.

TJ: I just tossed some on the ground. I had a barrel feeder set up that the bigger hogs could toss around at different angles. Those pics don't show the blind. The wood is a crate on the back of the atv.

When that brown one hits about 125 let me know...

LimBender · June 10, 2011, 06:22:00 PM

You sure those weren't pen raised? :D It should be a great first kill!

All this pulled pork talk got me thinking of some egg rolls I helped with recently - bbq pulled butt roast, slaw, wrap em up and deep fry em. Wasn't hard to do and ca c'est bon!
