Florida Hog Hunts
It was a sunny southwest Florida hog-hunting day, and I was
hunting with an outfitter out of Arcadia Florida. We started out on
the hog hunt hunting out of a two-man stand in a large Florida oak
canopy with no hogs to be seen. My hog guide said it was a slow
morning, but he would get me a hog before the hunting day is
over.
We then got out of the hunting stand and started to spot & stalk
hunt. I saw axis deer, bison, Water buffalo, fallow deer, giant
whitetail, and more with no hogs to be seen still. I was starting to
think I was not going to get my first hog when my guide said
there's one crossing the trail, but we an do better then that, it was
a 50 pound hog that looked like it was in a hurry to get
somewhere.
The wind was in our face so we keep on hunting in the same
direction, and within minutes we saw another hog, but still a Small
one. My hog guide said the small ones come out first, and then the
bigger hogs will be out. We walked more and more seeing more
and more hogs. At about 30 minutes before dark after seeing
around 25 small hogs we came up to a place the guide called the
big food plot. There my hog guide says, over by the hog feeder,
that's your hog.
Up with a set of hog shooting sticks and I take my shot. I was
walking for so long and waiting to get a Shot, and I missed.
Thinking the hog hunt was over; I was not a Happy camper at all.
Then to my surprise my hog guide says shake it off, if anyone says
that they never miss then they have not hunted very much, lets
find another.
Well we didn't have much hog hunting light left, so at a fast walk
we went down a hog path to another feeder, and there was an
even bigger meat hog. My hog guide said that's a 200 plus pound
sow, now put one in her ear. Up with the sticks again, and I shoot a
second time, and after the muzzle blast I was looking at nothing,
no hog.
What the heck am I doing wrong I said to my self, when I hear
my hog guide say great shot, she went down like a ton of hog
bricks. After walking up closer to the hog feeder I saw the hog, I
was relieved to see I didn't forget how to shoot after all. After
skinning and quartering the hog and two days latter we are in the
back yard talking about or next hog hunt, and eating at one great
hog BQ.
I can't wait to go on my next hog hunt!
