Where in the world have YOU been?
Morning GB1
I did school, and watched as the two bucks I was after came out, and walked right past my stand...while I'm in the house. Go figure. I'm also getting some materials together for a video I'll be making later.
do you hunt with a bow or a gun. this year in TX was too hot to hunt with a bow i'm waiting for gun season. morning rook
How is she doing ? Broke any bones or anything yet because of osteoporosis ?
I have never hunted with a gun before, and never will. Too noisy. I like my bow.
it is fun to hunt with a bow. but we have so many hogs here i want more than just a arrow against 20 of them
Man, you got a pair on ya, because I could never face one hog, let alone 20+.
I got scared of pigs when I shot my first buck, and we took it to a butcher shop at night. It was very dark, with no streetlight, so it was me and my dad putting the deer in a cooler, for the butcher to retrieve in the morning. I didn't know it at the time, but there was a hog pen about 15 feet away, and there was a 1,230 pound hog inside. So I'm standing beside the tailgate, and all of a sudden, this hog starts bellowing and roaring and screaming like it was trying to bring down the Appalachian mountains. My dad said I "levitated" onto the roof of our truck, and ran over the hood and hit the pavement on the other side, which wasn't far from the truth. I jumped onto the roof, and fell off onto the street on the other side, and I was still backpedaling out of Dodge, lol! I had never heard a pig before, so I didn't know what it was!
Since then, I've been scared to death of hogs, and I'm glad y'all are taking them out down in Texas.

A bit of trivia..
Pigs are louder than jet engines.
]What they lack in eyesight, they make up for in squeal. Pigs can scream up to 130 decibels! With jet engines coming it at 120 decibels compared to diesel engines at 80 decibels, you can imagine how noisy a group of pigs can be if they decide to cause a commotion.
