Successful wild hog hunt. Porkchops!
« on: June 03, 2007, 06:41:28 AM »
Did me a wild hog hunt here in Wisconsin 2 weeks ago. I forgot to take my digital camera, so we settled on the 35mm, then developed, then scanned, hence the poor quality images.

5 days (nights) of hard hunting before I found this guy. They are crafty critters, strictly nocturnal. I shot this fellar the night before the pics were taken. Thank God for the super low light qualities of Zeiss glass...(smirk)

This boar might only go 1/5th the weight of hogzilla, but hey, that is what you get when hunting 100% freeranging critters.
