5nRamirez Report post Posted February 22, 2014 Well it never goes as planned but today I am happy it worked out that way. I have always set up camp at least one day till opener so I was pretty bummed I had to make a late start and leave opining morning 5 am. Truck fully loaded with my 4 year old son and his mother with enough gear to stay the weekend.we pulled up to "camp" at daybreak grabbed our packs and shot up the mountain to a spot I see pigs consistintly. After countless deer sightings and all our snacks being diminished in record time I threw out the idea to go set up camp and get some rest for the evening. At that very moment my significant other pointed out a herd of 15+ pigs in a arroyo adjacent to us had to get my little one sittuated then got her lined up with the 243. and 1 shot was all it took.But instead of the usuall stampede when you shoot up a heard they all just stood around at 150 yards like nothing happend giving me 3 opportunitys with the .44 mag dropping it cold in his tracks. So needless to say I never unloaded my truck and am already sitting at home cutting backstraps. Although it was one of my shortest hunts of all time I was happy to share the experience with my son and his mother. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
