Went for a walk this evening to check on some weaner beefies and also 40odd hoggets. There had been a bit of pig sign around but mainly on the neighbours who doesn't like me ,surprise surprise thieving prick. Anyway just sort of relaxing and thinking about my next project when woa and behold there's this freeking huge boar walking towards me about 15mtrs away. the wind was good but I think he knew I was there because he sort of put his head down and came straight towards me. A 308 between the eyes sorted it all out and he also rolled part way own towards my access track. So after a quick gut and yes there were lambs inside ,I stuck him on top of some wood and opened him out for a pick up tomorrow. I did my back in 8 weeks ago and have spent the last 4 weeks including today at the Osteopath. Wonder what he's going to say or how I'm going to feel in the morning. Funny thing was ,this arvo I just sold my 120kg plus saddle Back boar to a client. This joker is up there and I can only quess at his weight, will find out tomorrow but I bet he's 200lb and more. Good hooks as well.
