This was my first time being able to hunt with the Pulsar Apex LRF XQ38. I really like the Apex line of scopes. I am not sure why Pulsar decided to go with the laser rangefinding on the Apex line instead of the new Trail line of scopes, but they did. The laser rangefinder works as it should and I was able to use it real time in the field to assess the distance to the hogs.
I don't know what happened with the first hog - user error on my part changing batteries in the dark and not getting the battery door closed properly. It popped during recoil and I lost video. The hog is probably back in the woods.
So as I started my search, I saw the sounder again, but farther north, despite the fact I last saw them running west. So I am wondering if maybe this second sighting is actually a second sounder. Don't know, but dropped a 205 lb sow from the group, the rest running back in a direction I could not shoot.
They will be back. They always come back...
