Jungle Hog Hunt

[Nomadic Pirate]

Today I was hunting a series of very narrow steep Gulches. 

The .45 BullPup is perfect for this kind of hunt where things happen fast and at close range. 

As it happens I was slowly making my way down a Gulch when I heard something on the slope to my left, luckily I was right by a tree so I braced myself and immediately I noticed this very nice saw coming my way, 

Not much time to think so as soon I was comfortable I took the shot, she was quartering to me with the head down coming downhill so I put the shot at the place where the skull turns, I wouldn't never took this kind of shot with a small bore, but the extra power of the .45 gave me the option. 


She was coming down the trail to the left of the tree I'm leaning into 

 

The shot,..straight left from the ear

Manny, you seriously need to start marketing your own quiet stalker clothing line. Or at least a T-shirt. You're like a ground level icon. Love your work! Thanks for sharing your passion.
