Thanks man. I am trying to get her a crossbow so that she can do even more hunting with me. It sure was fun for me to be there and to see her shot it. I am looking forward to getting her a first deer this year.

Nice kill. Are they coming onto your land or are they year round hunts?

All of the ones we shot were shot from the side of my house. We can hunt them anytime, including at night with a light. There is no season, or limit. We can kill all we want. Here is a pic from where the hog was shot. I took the pic from where the hog was and in the top of the pic you can see part of my house. I shoot from the top of the hill. My wife walked down the hill a little ways so she would not have to make a 200 yard shot.

They sure are fun to shoot, and the meat is imo better than deer. And I love deer meat.

I still gotta get up there sometime Helo. So busy I don't even get to go to my place. Maybe things will slow down soon.

Besides your rifle, do the pigs have any natural predators in the area?

Still looking forward to meeting you and your kids. When ever you get a chance to get up here send me a pm, or give me a call, I think I sent you my cell number.

The babys have some predators, but once they get over 6 months they can handle themselves. So pretty much just people.
