Hello fellow hoggers!.......Ron Lilley returned with more clients, Lance Kizziar and Bob Kizziar. No shortage of success here as there were 5 hogs taken between them!!! Ron did not miss with an arrow this week...and retrieved his hog shortly afterwards. Lance found out how amazingly tough these hogs are and also how the right spot will bring them down quick,...even with a 200 yard shot! One hog of Lance's was an agreed 150#'r. Bob took a 100# hog and seemed pleased with his time in the field. He saw his commrads have success and saw lots of hogs. The two big russian boars were seen on the run in the morning not to be seen the rest of the day.........they still lurk!..............Ever seen a cottontail squat to "hide" while you walk close by? Boars will do the same thing but will "bust the bushes"once they think they have been detected! Kind of scary to know you might walk within inches of "_ell's fury"!
.....Just a note on hog sizing: Hog weights are notoriously overestimated when they roam hillsides and valleys as they tend to grow "up" instead of "out",...but feed 'em some corn and in a short time they get thick and slabby with just enough fat to grill them to perfection! Feral hog is universally accepted as fine "wild"cuisine by most hunters!!!!!!!
