AZP&Y Report post Posted January 9, 2012 The Javelina hunt is always a special hunt. As you have probably read from other posts there are some DIE-HARD javy hunters on this website and throughout the great state of Arizona. Prior to my hunt this weekend I read some of the these emotional posts of father-son hunts,folks that are slowing down (in age) and health issues as well. My mindset was to enjoy the time in the hills with friends. It was that simple. I departed for the incredible pig experience at 4am to some Ted Nugent - Hunt Music- Sunrize Narrated: I won't post the whole song, but here's how the first part of it goes: I say how can it be that man owns the land, can we possess the sky, the wind, the call of the seasons ? Man does not own the earth, but rather the earth owns man, we’re merely caretakers of the wild for our children. We must show reverence for nature, the ground we share, and the spirit of the wild.We must respect each new sunrize.sunrize.sunrize... I met Clay and his Dad and we headed out before first light. By 9am we were glassing and spotted a bruiser 4x4 Muley pushing a doe. Then just below that, "movement" a small group of pigs and before I knew it , I was 42 then 30 yards watching them feed. With Clay there he ranged them "30 yards he whispered" and I let one fly. "THWACK" ! I hit the boar good. Still had to walk up on him and finish him off. 2012 starting out wonderfully with friends... A BIG Thanks to Clay and Bill - My hats off to you for allowing me to tag along Enjoy each new Sunrize and best of luck to all you bow, rifle, handgun and muzzeloader PIG hunters!

Atypical Report post Posted January 13, 2012 Congrats Doug E Fresh! Nice stranglehold on that piggy, T. Nuge would be proud. I was jealous when I saw it as I was freezing in my unproductive deer blind up North in the snow. You guys do good work and I look forward to more bloody posts.
