I got this hog sunday on some private land next to home. I deer hunted this same land during bow, black powder, and gun seasons. Got pics of a few deer but mostly pics of hogs. I decided to put up a stand a few weeks ago and started getting pics in a few days. I set up sunday evening and this hog and another one came in. I picked the bigger of the two and when she turned I put a 250 gr. XTP from my 12 inch 454 Casull TC Encore in her thinker. No tracking involved. The bad part is I had to drag her out by myself.

WTG, Okie! Nice shot with the 454. Did you have any bait out?

I've hunted hogs several times in Okla. and have always enjoyed it and killed many pigs. Seems as though everytime I find a good place, it ends up getting over-hunted pretty quick.

You guys have a good thing down there with the pigs. Unless you're a rancher getting his crops and terrain torn up, then it might not seem so good.

Congrats that's a great hog and a great shot! I wouldn't mind seeing a few of them from my tree stand that's for sure!
