No necropsy this time. Sorry. This hog is off to be butchered for consumption and in the warm temps, it was more important to deliver the hog than to cut it apart for the sake of knowledge.
As usual, the Berger VLD-Hunting round overpenetrated and as usual, appeared to fragment in the process. I found it really interesting that the sow had two very distinct exit wounds. It looked like she had two FMJ exit wounds, but there was only one shot.
The landowner thought he heard the sound of an impact on the piglet. I saw no indication of a hit on its running. We did look for it, but it apparently mad it into the woods with the poison ivy. I would be surprised if it was hit.
I like these daylight hogs. It seems strange to be able to just see them right there out in the open with the unaided eye, LOL.
I thought this was pretty funny. I got in the stand and did my usual check-in with the wife, included a few pics of the hogs on game camera and about as soon as she replied, the hogs showed up...
We still have some cookie dough from Wednesday's hog, but that means I will be fixing cookies in the morning!
And for those of you who don't know it, Angry Bird has a new movie out. I haven't seen it yet, but he assures me that it is good.
