finally! After a month of being close due to military training, they open one of our favorite TA at the base. Last time we are at the base i found something that intrigue me ,aside from the dead Tule elk. i want to know who the culprit of this sh*&^t (Firs pix) . that day we spend the entire day following his tracks and watching his bedding area and never come out till the last light.
This morning he made a big mistake going home late. we let the young kid in our group take the shot at him with a slug gun. run 20 yards and he was down. drag him up to the side of the road for easy pickup. estimate to be around 200lbs . an old warrior no more!!

Amazing!! I'm just starting out and it's great to know that pigs like that are out there. One day I'll get mine.

What was the range and rifle?
 
75 yards 12 gauge copper solid in Training area 25. Daq sorry for the late response . saw bigger ones that are taken by friends and other hunters at the base.you just have to know where they bed, eat and be lucky to get a big one.
