 Dave, Jeff ,Thanks. Took me two shots, I forgot the Katran was sighted for 75yrds and I held on top of his head & shot right over it! I got another shot in a few
 minutes & nailed it. I've had glimpses of this 'hog several times over the last two weeks as I pass w/in feet of the hole on the way to "The Killing Field". The Fence
 line was overgrown along the hayfield & I would have done fine had I had a handgun only with me! I took some time the other day to open a few areas up with
 my string trimmer & this hole got attacked by the sling blade later on. As I walked in today passed the spot ,it zipped in the hole. I just kept moving to a shaded
 area along the fence , sat my stool down , propped the gun on the trigger sticks, ranged the post by the hole & there was a 'hog in the glasses ! It became #24.
 A few hrs later I nailed a juvenile at 42yrds & sent that pic also to Randall, my CEO of the Technical Group (1 ,,him). My thanks to Randall.
