    What happened to the winch for hauling the horses onto the deck? Looks like hot work

    but they were big, I think the sow on the right took a 300wm 180 grainer fair between eyes, I had to do a little cosmetic work on her before taking the photo.

    UPDATE:
    I got my trailcam in the mail yesterday. Got my blood and bone in the back of the truck and my maize, milk and yeast fermenting on the deck. All ready to bait up this weekend.
    The pigs have been consistently turning up around 5:30pm on the farm this week. I think shite I can't leave it too long or else someone else'll grab them.
    Today I knocked off at 3:45 and shot home. Buggers are already out. I grab my gear and head back up. Sneak up next to the paddock behind silage bales. Good, they're still there.
    I range them at 350 yards. Then they all bale. Shit!
    Two bigger ones and a littley eventually show themselves closer, 250yds. But all of a sudden they bolt. Bugger, this wind is swirling around.
    I wait. The othe mob finally re-appear at 350 again. Hearts racing a little, settle down.
    They're constantly moving. I set myself up, Bang! Dropped the bugger. There's pigs running everywhere. Can't get another shot away.
    Choice my first pig! Bloody small but it sure will taste good.

    Start baiting them up Johnio they'll be back.

    Can you set up some hay bales and a shooting rest a bit closer?

    Cheers

    Yeah I reckon I'll be able to. This was a bit rushed plus there was a big farkin' bull in the same paddock I was a bit wary of.

    I've seen what they can do Rushy.

    My old man used to ride the bulls in Rodeo ..... when I say Ride I really mean try to hang on.

    Seen more than a few sets of yards smashed apart when they get a mind too as well

    Best thing is to keep out of their way.

    Cheers

    I have much admiration for your dad then Pete. I attended the Calgary Stampede years ago and watched just how long seven seconds really is. Those bulls are insane.
