Greg, about 20-25 yards was probably the average. A lot of the hogs we were seeing were out in the open, and it was tough to get much closer than that. I suck at judging yardage, anyway. I did spend about 45 minutes slithering on my belly like a snake across a field of briars and fire ants using a little scrubby knee-high palmetto as cover and finally got within 15 yards of a group of hogs. Just as I raised up and started to draw back, SOMEBODY who shall remain nameless (EDDIE  ;D ;D) came barrel-assing around the corner doing about 70 in a Polaris Ranger and scattered my flocks and herds to the four winds.  :)

Nice pictures there Steve.  I thought you were going to say 40 yards.  I can handle 20-25......sometimes.  ;D I'm just not that proud, them little buggers would have been tender little chops.  8)  Justin

Justin, I'm not too proud, either, but those little fellers probably woulda fit in your shirt pocket-you coulda put both of 'em on a kabob skewer with enough room left for onions and mushrooms.  :)
