    @Tom good luck down there!

  • Tom's avatar

    Appreciate it. I’ll be hog hunting also. Don’t have a lot of property to turkey hunt, but plenty to hog hunt. This is my hog from last year

    Sweet! You gonna wet a line while you're down there??

  • Nate's avatar

    @Tom that’s awesome! I got to shoot a few pigs while I was down there too - another first for me.

  • Tom's avatar

    Awesome! Glad we don’t have a lot of hogs, where I live in Ohio, but it would be nice to hunt them any time I want. We thermal hunt for hogs. It’s a rush sneaking up on them in the pitch dark. I shot this hog at 50-60 yards

  • Nate's avatar

    @Appalachian I did! Kind of… I’m not much of a fisherman but that was another first - fishing with a cane pole 😆 a pile of bream.

  • Nate's avatar

    @Tom I couldn’t believe how many we saw and heard in the swamps. I’d never seen a hog in the wild before and to get to shoot them was a hoot!

  • Tom's avatar

    Oh yeah!!! We heard a gator doing the death roll about a hundred yards away, after I shot my boar. Makes ya a little nervous when you’re in the dark. Gators don’t show up in the thermal scope since they’re cold blooded.
