Stupid Asian? Isn't that an oxymoron or something?
Same group of hogs came out 9:30 pm. I spotted them at the 300 yd mark I was hunting with my Recon. Wind was in my face. By the time I got within 100 yards of them I could feel the wind on my neck. I pulled up my monocular. They were gone. Frustrating!
A tried to find a place where the wind would stay in my face. Just wasn't gonna happen. Wind kept turning on me all night long.
Saw a nice #150 size piggy around midnight but it was in the midst of cattle. Between me in the cattle were about 10 deer. There was just no hunting this pig with wind, cattle and deer. Went to bed.
Waiting out now. Deer are plentiful. BUT NO HOGS YET!

Not what I wanna see! And the winds on my neck again. At 300 YDS shouldn't matter though
Ate bacon with my farmer (irony).
Packed up around 9.
Headed home. Slammed on breaks petal went to floorboard. That ain't good.
This Friday 13 got the better of me.

NOT a comforting feeling to have the brake pedal hit the floorpan ! Shortly after getting my little P/U... was under it (givin' it the ol' chicken-eye) and found a bulge in one of the front brake lines. A couple of new lines, and a fresh flushing of fluid through the whole system... life was "more gooder" once again.
