Default Big Boar Down

Well he's not big as some I have seen but he wasn't little. Friday night I set out a couple of snares a friend of mine lent me. Well Saturday morning I went to set in one of my stands that was across the road from where I had set a snare. Well as I was walking in I thought I heard some pigs so I hurried to my stand and settled in. Well the pig noise quieted and then it would start up again, quiet and then start up, this went on for about 10 minutes and then I remembered the snare I had caught a hog. We this was all taking place a about 5:45 am so I decided when it got light I would go and take him out. So at 6:30 am I climbed down from my stand and crossed the road. There stood a big pig. Well thought how should I take with my pistol or bow. Well I was about 10 yds from him and there was a tight hole in the brush and then thought this is will be just like shooting 3D at Smokn Feathers in Livingston. So I moved to the left to get him to move to the right so I could get him to give me a good shot. Well we danced for about 5 minutes and there it was I drew and let her fly. I made a perfect quartering to me shot, he fell over dead. I walked back to my stand and finished my hunt.
