Thread: 'buck fever'

first solo big pig...dogs bailed it a couple of times and it kept breaking...I got to bulldozed track infront of it and out it came...I hit it in spine with first round out of the old 303 ,completely missed with next 5 RAPIDLY POINTED shots then connected solidly with 7th....the old man said it sounded like a semi the shots were so close together...didnt learn in hurry first stag with 30/30 this time...roared him up to about 75 yards away,completely missed it 4 times then AIMED and took him down... have never done it since...other than trying to shoot wallaby from hip with poohseventy....geeze I wasted some amunition as a young fella.
still get a real buzz moving in on animals but have the buck fever under control now.
