Nice Boar I think I need a 300HH

 

[Chukar]

Nice porker!

 

[JPbowhunter]

Beautiful rifle and nice squealer. Have any hooks?

 

[BenKK]

Short, stubby ones, but I didn’t go fishing around for a proper look as he was too rank and diseased, blind in at least one eye, ears ripped.

Yeah fair enough, are any of them up that way edible?

 

[BenKK]

Yep, most younger ones that look healthy should be okay with proper cooking.

Rough old warrior and plenty battle scars. Interesting trophy.

I like the .300 H&H. I should have hung onto mine.

Nice pick-up Ben.

Early Dry season boars are usually hard to come by.

Is that a burn in the backround ?
If so I found that they come around fresh burns to forage for whatever may be found on the surface, insects, lizards etc.

Well done, nice looking rifle too.

That wasn’t a question but a statement; was t it?

Cheers, Paul! Learn something new everyday! Makes sense, as he appeared almost completely blind. The burn was indeed pretty fresh, from last weekend.

Interestingly we believe we’ve been just behind catching this guy out several times over the last year. We couldn’t even get him on baits last year or yesterday, but the burn at dawn caught him out.

 

[Dr Ray]

What rifle and caliber, Ben?

 

[Dr Ray]

Sorry saw the 300
