I know it would be bad but I kind of wish we had hogs here.  Anyone else secretly wish we had them here?

I don't particularly like the shooter in this case. Many suffering animals that should have had a quick follow up shot to put them out of their misery. He can lead a moving target kinda OK, but can't hold the rifle still to save his arse. And has terrible trigger control. Anyone can herd/flock shoot.

The thermal stuff is kinda cool though.

Do I wish we had Hogs here?  Yup!

I thought the guy running the camera is a pretty good shot.  :dunno:  The guys with him...not so much.  Yeah he should have put another round in a couple of them.

   I used to hunt them regularly while stationed in California and they were a BLAST! I agree, they are pretty damned destructive and sure would cause a lot of problems....but I wish we had that opportunity here in WA.

Didn't look like shot placement was very high priority on the shooters list.  :dunno: I won't knock it anymore than that but I guess it's just not my thing. The thermal is pretty cool, looked like a video game.

As bad as they would be, they would be fun to hunt, but I am glad they aren't here.

The camera guy could shoot! And yeah, i ain't a farmer, i hunt for the farmers, so i think hogs would be awesome. Cause these guys pay bounties on coyotes just cause coyotes sometimes dig holes in their fields or kill deer in em. So imagine what i'd be getting for hogs! I'd want one of them thermal scopes though. Thats cool stuff.
Make every shot count cause ya might not get another.
