If Curt feels up to it, I would love to hear his rendition of the event....we stood shoulder to shoulder for most of it, but split up for about the last 15 minutes trying to better our odds of one of us getting a shot, or steering the group to the other.

My rendition isn't any different than Terry's. It was one of those hunt situations that you couldn't make up in your wildest dreams!

The leaf litter was so dry and noisy that it sounded like we were about to get run over at any time, but they were actually further away than they sounded.

I don't know how many times I turned my light on that night just knowing any second I was going to draw and shoot....but it just never came together.

When it was finally over, and they all faded away, on both sides of us, it got so quiet. We almost had to ask ourselves..."did all that really just happen?"

Another incredible experience logged into the old gray matter!

We never did make it back to look for my arrow....but you already know how that turned out the next morning          


Thank you guys for the congrats!

Some turn of events on that hog, I would have bet my house that I missed!

Gregg, She'd only gone about 75yds tops.

It is a nice hog.      

Some random pix...


Although it was overall extremely dry, there were some holes that held water...check out the wallow holes along the back edge...

Terry is very proud of his campfires...

Around the "Racetrack Stand"...

Cypress has to be the coolest tree...

Terry on point sporting his new "Ceasar"...

The place is pretty dry.Like this kinda dry.
 

Nice hog, Curt. And nice recovery, Terry.

A few more random shots...


Boar "hooking"...

Some of the very few I actually saw while sneakin' during daylight hours.  They were all little guys. Got into about 10ft of them while they were just off the road...

"The Broadhead", I had Chris' bh in my quiver just in case I got up the nerve to shoot it. Hogs are notorious arrow breaker/bh losers....I just couldn't stand the thought of losing it!

Doug and Terry...

Terry entering "The Cathedral"...

A lot more to come...it actually gets better!!  

Cool pics, is that a pig in the second pic of the race track?  Black object to the left

Fantastic stuff!

Nah...just an old cypress stump.

Curt...have you got that other pic of the Cathedral?....I thought you had a tall narrow one that showed more of the height of the trees....

And believe it or not...it DOES get better....

Denfinitley needed to go buy a lottery ticket that night you found the sow Curt. Good stuff and great read.      

It's already great! And it gets better!?  

This is pretty sweet guys!

God Bless,
Nathan

I know it's hard to loose something like that Guru, but having read some stuff about Chris, I think he would want ya'll to use it.  I might not shoot it in a biggun, but I'd sure sling it into anything shy of 150#s.  Go for it man, and let Chris smile a bit.

Just catching up! WOW!

Yep just catching up too. Wow what a hunt so far! Thanks for sharing, and I can't wait to see what else you guys have for us.
