ron thompson Report post Posted January 19, 2008 rockdog, A site trying to sell hunting opportunities should have at least a modicum of information about such opportunities. That one has nada, zero, zilch, nil, nothing. You would think they would at least include some photos of past hunters if they intend to sell hunts. So how's about some photos of that monster boar you shot?? -TONY Good news, I called Tnt to ask them if there would be any problem with my using photos of the hog taken by my buddy on this format. Lo and behold, they have already posted on their website the photo with him and his hog. It's one that says 300lbs. plus and him standing next to the hanging hog. So just go their website and you'll see it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ron thompson Report post Posted January 19, 2008 Did they ask your Buddys permission to use his photo? Mike I'm not sure but I don't think that he will have a problem with it. It's not too often that someone can be on a website with a 310 lb. Russian Boar that was taken in a full charge at 8 yds. I do know that we were told that his photo would and is placed on Sptsmn's Whse. Hall of Fame board in Tuc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Outdoor Writer Report post Posted January 20, 2008 I and a buddy, just did a week end hunt and took a 310 lb. Euro-boar with 2" cutters. He was really PO'd because we scared off his herd of sows and was only 8 yds. away in full charge. My 270 wsm/150 gr. soft point, hit him just below the eye line, dead square in the nose and he dropped like lead weight. The range mgrs., who were backing me, were just about to open up with their 12 ga.s when I fired. Talk about excitement!!! I couldn't stand still for a good 15 min. after. At least for us, as I took the biggest boar (310 lbs.) on my first day out. Not to mention that we saw tons of other wildlife. Good news, I called Tnt to ask them if there would be any problem with my using photos of the hog taken by my buddy on this format. Lo and behold, they have already posted on their website the photo with him and his hog. It's one that says 300lbs. plus and him standing next to the hanging hog. So just go their website and you'll see it. Well, I saw the hog that appears to have been killed the first time by you and the second time by your buddy (see above). If he needed killing twice, he musta been a tough ol' bugger, eh? -TONY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sometimes peer envy gets the better of you but I really did feel like it was me that did the "kill". Maybe one day it will be me pulling the trigger and not someone else. I did get to watch tho (the story of my life!!!). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Outdoor Writer Report post Posted January 20, 2008 And here I thought only fishermen stretched the truth. For shame. So is anything else you mentioned about this great place to hunt hogs embellished beyond the reality of it?? -TONY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
