AZLance Report post Posted February 22, 2014 Took a another new hunter out today for a free guided hunt. He isn't a kid as usual but was as excited as a kid when he smoked this Javalina with one shot at 75 yds. This might have been the most work I have ever put into a Javalina hunt. We glassed the pigs up first thing this morning about 1.5 miles away and about a 800' elevation climb thru shin dagger covered hills. These pigs were on the move instead of their casual feeding routine I had become acostomed to in this area. I got Dan all the way up to the ridge top where they disappeared in our glasses. We sat patiently for about a hour until one of them showed himself thru the thick scrub brush. We made a short stalk to get with in 75 yds and they came walking out single file. Dan quickly found them in the scope and squeezed off a perfect shot. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kidso Report post Posted February 23, 2014 That looks like a nice border patrol gun. We don't need to construct a fence along the border, we just need to plant shin daggers a few yards deep to keep the smugglers out. Nice pig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, that is one of those "bring your own gun" to work pieces! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
out2hunt Report post Posted February 24, 2014 Great looking pig! Question, is it legal to hunt with a thirty round clip? I thought you had to have a five round cip to be legal? Since your a guide I figure you would know the answer to this question? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
