Anyone dropping hoggs?

Thre flavor is better if the hog is killed while "at rest" adrenaline and testosterone are but 2 chemicals released in stressed situations. But we rarely ever dispatch our dog caught hogs at the scene of the catch as we prefer to pen them for a week at least then butcher them.
Tastes as good as possible this way. If a hog survives even for a few moments after initially shot or even shot at these chemicals are in the meat as well. But to save the dogs I have gone in for the "stick" in battle and those hogs are resigned to 100% sausage meat...

Para Bellum,

Do you know were that monster was killed? The biggest bore I have ever seen was about half that size, and it was huge.
Thanks for the great pictures!
 
Thank for the photos Para Bellum. From the size of that hog, if I ever start hunting again, I'd better take my .375 H&H.
and an AK back-up.
 
Thank to all ! I guess I'll buy a 10mm slide as a backup to my .480 wheel for this trip. It just so happens that I was @ the Hornady factory Monday and they were testing a 10mm in the 2nd tunnel and I was impressed. So when the hunt is over I'll be back with pics.

Thanks...Single Six 1954

Sorry, no. But if I read the faces of the two gentlemen right, the blond one is German, Dutch or Skandinavian and the dark one - I assume the guide - is central asian, I assum from Kasachstan. They have BIG HOGS there I have heared.
