2015 HAM hunt success :)

Recommended Posts

Headed back down to 27 for the HAM hunt. Got there late and slept in the truck, got up and had this pig down by 3:00 Saturday. Had a blast hunting these guys again. This one is way bigger then last years. Can't wait to get the skull and the mount back. Going to do a Wall Pedestal mount on this one :) Will post some pix here when I get the mount back.

Thanks guys. The round hole you can see is one of the exit holes. Bullet disintegrated very bad. Thus the reason for wall pedestal lol. I dont like things getting away or suffering so we shoot big guns with mean bullets. Good thing my taxidermist loves me and can complain about the holes we put in animals. :)

Bad thing was shooting this muzzleloader I basically off hand shot it and didn't have ear plugs in... last year's pig was with the 338 Lapua and no ear plugs there.. my ears hurt a lot when I kill stuff lol

I forgot to add. So the pigs were by a rock outcropping and I shot, he rolled down. We walked on top to see where the others went to maybe have Cody shoot the other. I wanted to walk to where I shot him to see. We saw a ton of pig sign and followed it and found a cave with tracks coming in and out a lot. Was pretty crazy seeing that. My pig also had a cyst under his hide but on the skin. Opened it up and it was a ton of hair. We think he got poked and the hair got in the wound and healed up inside. Was pretty cool.

I also need to thank Morgan at Patriot Precision for loaning us his amazing custom Muzzleloader. The gun shot perfectly and was the first muzzleloader I ever shot, first time shooting was shooting this pig. If your looking for a gunsmith that's a truly great guy give him a call. He is currently building 2 rifles for us and he makes beautiful guns.

Don't you know Cody's gone all bunny hugger on us!?! He doesn't kill things any more cause he thinks they're all too cute and fuzzy, he just likes to go look at them and get all teary eyed when you poke holes in 'em.
