6-15-12

Today I guided Travis Cloyd on a pig hunt. We hit the ground running right at first light and started working the lower brush country where I had been seeing some pigs. We looked the area over but where unable to find anything out moving so we headed up the hill. We worked the upper part of the ranch and were working our way back down towards some water, but as we rounded the corner, there they were! There was a group of 4 adult pigs in the 100-150 pound range and a line of piglets, so we picked out a nice dry sow and Travis let her have it! The shot was true and within seconds he was standing over his second pig ever. He made a great shot, so we took a few photo's and got to work on the gutting and skinning as it was starting to warm up. All the work was done by 10:00 AM and they had the pig loaded and headed for the butcher. Travis is becoming quite the killer, so I am sure you will see him on the blog again.
