The 375 Win knocked another hog off its feet last night at 11:30. I just left it lay and went back this morning to get it. I'd been up since 5:30 that morning and I was spent.

Starting in October 2103, I started using a database to record control hunting kills as part of my wildlife management plan reporting requirements. This hog was the 102nd that I've shot. In 2012, I killed 67. I bought the place in 2004, and sometimes I wonder just how many hogs this place has provided.

Actually, the night time hunting that is required to keep them in check is wearing a bit thin. I have a young fellow that owns a small place next to mine. He has all the night vision stuff so after deer season I'm going to turn my pasture over to him to have at them. I'm going to start sleeping all night.
