Your welcome Jeremy !!I like Gil’s idea about the calls, definitely something to try.Take care my friend Dave
Congrats. Yep they sure land with a loud thud despite hitting branches on the way down. Try lip squeaks to keep it from running away the next time you need to load your rifle. Even angry hog boar calls lure them in too which I found out once when three coons arrived while I was trying to bring in hogs that were in my neighbor's yard using a hog call app.
Jeremy, excellent patient and shot! All your hard efforts paid off.
Great patience, great stalking, great shooting, great writing and heart pounding, poignant ending! I give it Five Stars: * * * * * ( )
...and I'm gonna go watch "The Ghost and The Darkness" again now...
