View Full Version : I'm sorry hungry folks

:cry:
I really thought I had done good. I had 2 little eater pigs come in and pose for me. I picked out a black spot on the bigger of the two and stuck a 200 grain Zephyer right in it. Much to my dismay he made it 75 yards and over the face of a 200 foot canyon. after considerable finagling I made my way to the bottom but never picked up the blood trail. Only thing I can figure is he is somewhere between the top and the bottom on a little shelf. As I didn't have any repealing gear along with me I will never know for sure. It was my great pleasure to finally meet one of my hero's Losthawg as he joined Tinman, Monty and two of my long time friends on a Ham for the hungry hunt. I think everybody had Hogs around them but it just didn't work out. We will try again.

I had a great time Marty. I owe you one.

The pics I took of that big 10 didn't turn out. I guess I just didn't have enough zoom once I was finally able to get to my camera. All I got is a patch of brown in the brush and I think one side of his rack, but its hazy. He was a magnificent beast either way. ;)

Really nice place you have there. Loved listening to the song dogs and all the harrassment I got from your bucks while I was on stand. :P

I did have that one big nasty come in, but he didn't give me a shot. I think you (or whoever said it) were right about him cruising for sows. He sure didn't seem to be too concerned about his environment. Just nosing around to see what was going on.

I see now why you corned your cactus. :lol: You're right that pig is done.

Those are good pics. It is somewhat frightening to think that losthawg or Buff could be our cover picture some day. :shock: EEK!

Hey Joey,
I borried a couple/three of your pics. Take a look at the reception they got. You're not half bad with that shutter. ;)

Joey, what kind of camera is it?

tinman

Graybow, it's the Kodak Easyshare Z-710. It's not bad for $249, 7.1 megapixels, 10x zoom, decent lense. It's pretty slow and doesn't have image stabilization but I'm happy with for what we spent.

Thanks for passing them around, Tracy. Been meaning to spend some time lurking over there and check it out anyhow. Thanks for the excuse. :wink:

Thanks, Tinman. I saw these camera's at Wal-Mart today. Been shopping for a new camera. May pick one up. Judging from the photo's, it looks like it does a good job.
