We had the Silencer Shop, Griffen Armament and the Pipe Hitters Union out Saturday night.

We were out about an hour..
Funny part is a pig fell out of the back of the truck so it didnt make it in this picture.

Looks like a pile of BBQ soon. Very nice!
When you are dead, you don't know you are dead.It is difficult only for others.

It is the same when you are stupid.

The small ones are delicious!

Wow, that's a pile-o-pigs! Congrats.

I am so glad Missouri doesn't allow use of night vision or thermal scopes; saves me thousands of dollars!  What fun!

I usually hunt hogs several times in the Spring. I haven't been all year, one thing or another, mostly the weather and the full moon won't align. Got another trip schedules for May, that pic sure has me itching to go. Did you get those from the Austin area or out in the hill country?

our lease is just south of Seguin, between Austin and San Antonio

I stumbled accross this pic from the deer season the other day I had taken.
It is the same part of the lease where we got the pigs..

Beautiful picture, Charles.  Outstanding, really...

That sendero on the left against the tree line sure looks like a good place to sling some corn.

Yep..
There is a nice tank back in the woods..
We use a road feeder on the front of the truck..
Money well spent.

Road will be all tore up by morning.

I still do it the hard way. Throw a fifty pound sack of corn in front of me on the four wheeler and sling it by hand. It sucks but you can get the corn exactly where you want it.
