Jesse and I went on our pig hunt last week. We had a lot of fun!
Jesse was hunting with a long bow his uncle made for him and I had a 270.

| This lady was 15ish yards away, she had some babies and kept snorting at us to go away. |

| Big horn sheep! |

| Jesse trying to get close to some pigs. He got a boar with his arrow! When I saw the boar it was running in circles, the arrow was sticking out through its shoulder, and it was squealing like crazy. It did that for a few second then the squealing stopped and the pig disappeared! We trailed the blood for a while, with Jesse's cousins help, we found the arrow that had gone all the way through, but we never found the pig. Jesse's Aunt and Uncle said it looked like a lung shot and it probably wouldn't die for a day or 2. We were VERY disappointed, especially since this was Jesse's first time using a long bow. |

| We didn't not go home skunked this hunting trip though. Jesse, Jesse's Aunt ML, and I cornered a bunch of pigs and I actually shot one. I felt so bad at first because (when the scope was down) the boar look like a baby! I seriously thought I had shot a baby! It was that small. I was assured by Aunt ML that it was not a baby, and just a small female. | |
 |
| This picture kinda shows how small mine was. My boar is on the left and the one one the right was a medium size. |

 |
| Don't worry! This will be the only picture of me gutting it out. |
 |
| And this is the only one of me skinning it. | |

We had a really fun day and came home EXHAUSTED!!!
