I think it had been shot off some time ago. It was skinny as a rail, about the only food it could get were the tall weeds in that field. The shot was a little over 300 yards and I didn't know the jaw was gone until I drove up to the pig and saw the green stain. The gun is a custom XP100 pistol in 284 Win. done up by HS Precision.

Gentleman,
Now that is what i call putting the UG! on ugly. Old boars will some times maim the younger boars,,, Like Emasculating the younger boars. In the southwest part of New Mexico where NM & Az and old Mexico meet A friend and myself witnessed this happening from a hill looking down on a
Stock tank in the valley below, Wasn't a very pretty sight either, Don't know that is what happened to this one or not, But Jeff done this one a favor by putting it down. Stay Safe............Joe...................
