Right. Still a good hunting story at close quarters. If you got gopro rolling on, surely will be a good short movie.

Haha, a tough guy like you would have been fine!

goodness, you nearly went home with him for a bbq !

Great read, give me goose bumps thinking about what one of those long pieces of antler could do to my nether regions.

To be honest I was more worried about getting pushed down the face I was clinging on to, and if so my rifle would get banged up as well, it was so steep there would be no stopping until hitting the bottom or a large tree.. In 30 years hunting this is only the second time this has happened, I have had pigs charge at me twice as well, maybe I have a dislike-able personality.

right..we need more detail...what cartridge and load did you use at such a barrel stretching range...
