Long Range Thermal Boar Hunt

[ZenArchery]

Longest shot I have taken to date at a boar with my Pulsar Apex Thermal. I spotter him over 250 yards out. Doing a ton of security check over the tall grass. It was cool spontaneously seeing his snout come out of the grass. With his cautiousness I decided to just take the shot from my high spotting point. He moved into 180 yards. I just needed him to turn broadside. Pulled the trigger on my .277 Wolverine. The 95gr Barnes TAC-TX found its mark. Hit him 4 more times. Dang thing didn't want to die.

Dedicated hunt to my farmer friend Roger.

Looked like an arcade shooting gallery for a while. You had him going back and forth. Good job. Condolences on the loss of what sounds like a great person and friend.

What a beast. He acted like he was getting hit with a bb gun. Nice shooting

 

[ZenArchery]

First shot was a good shot. I think he was just running the life out of him. Literally! Stupid me just needs to get a better wind advantage and get to more reasonable distance.
