Big Bacon
« on: October 21, 2009, 11:17:52 AM »
Cute little Texas pig .......That was killed in the town of Cut-N-Shoot TX. We call them Piney Wood Rooter's.


Over 1,800 lb. wild boar shot and killed in Conroe, Texas near the County Airport, East of I-45 and near the community of Cut and Shoot.

Killed by a medical Radiology worker...What would you do if this beast was coming at you? Run for dear life? Climb a tree? or simply get run over ?

this pic's been on the WWW for years now. the consensus was that it's not from this country given the vehicle in the pic.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

The company or outfitter is from Turkey..not Texas. 
Wild Turkey, Walleyes, Whitetails and Wapiti..These are a few of my favorite things!!

They don't look very excited.  :chuckle:  :chuckle: look at the one in the middle next to the hunter. There expressions are hilarious.

He didn't even long-arm the photo...he just walked 10 yards away from the pig and then had the cameraman get within a yard of it. Presto! Monster Pig!!!!

I should try that with my 11 pound dog for a christmas card. Monster Dog!!!

Cracks me up.

i don't think this thing is quite as big as they want you to believe. the fact that in every picture they are sitting a good 15 feet behind the pig should tell you taht there embellishing just a touch  :dunno:
No people will tamely surrender their Liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and Virtue is preserved. On the Contrary, when People are universally ignorant, and debauched in their Manners, they will sink under their own weight without the Aid of foreign Invaders.
