Had a lot of fun and about 6 hours of sleep since Thursday. Thursday night I hunted with good friends Scott and Jenni, we were targeting predators. Jenni killed a coon and a possum, their cousin killed a coyote. Friday I had the best turnout for my seminar, met a lot of nice people and got a new hunting spot for Saturday night. Friday night we got out after hogs. We saw 3 really big ones in a field but the wind was wrong. The plan was to go past them and double back with a better wind. Problem was next field had about 15 hogs in it. Being the guy I am, we decided and hog in the hand is better than a hog in the bush. We snuck up on them with thermal devices {X320’s} and rifle mounted thermals and dropped 6 that we know of. One boar was pretty good sized but he was thin due to an old injury. We then called predators again and called in a 2 coons ,2 fox and a bobcat. Jenni made contact with a nice fox. Saturday was long and busy, I met a lot of good people and dramatized a lot a reality {this would be hunting stories}. Saturday night we met with the gentleman that had asked me to come hunt his place. His whole family was there and I let them play with all the thermal sights and toys I had to hunt with. The first field we checked had a small group of hogs in it and his 12 year old grandson got one of them. We called in 2 predators on the same field, but we were unable to identify them for a shot. We made a few more stand, but no predators. So we decided to check the first field again. There were quite a few hogs in it again. Scott and I decided to take out as many as we could and managed to get 4 of them. All in all it
was a great time with great people. Good way to spend a birthday weekend. Thanks for all the birthday wishes!
