Thanks guys.
The story,
I was going around the place looking for places that had any signs of course most of the day. I was making my way back down the main road and pulled off into a small spot that I saw on the tree line that looked kind of open with tall grass. So I get out and look for a spot to squeeze through the trees and I end up in a clearing. The whole area had rutting through most of it and I saw a spot that looked fresh in the grass line about 25 yards away. The grass wasn't super dense but it was about waste high so I was on my toes. I get to the rut and start looking for tracks or trails to see the direction they left in. As I'm looking through the grass I see what I thought to be a couple of crows in the grass through a small bushy tree about 30 feet from me. This is typical here so I didn't think anything of it. I keep looking and I notice black to the left of it and it looked bigger so I didn't think it was a bird and BAM, I hear snorting! I slowing try to step to the right around the tree and it turns out that I was looking at the ear of the hog flapping while it was eating! Of course I spooked it because I was so close and them I hear about 3 or 4 of them scatter. So I sit and listen. There were two that went left and one went right. I sat and listened hoping that they wouldn't go far so I was listening to shrub noise to locate them. They seemed to stay within 30-40 yards so I slowing made my way to where I saw the one eating and looked for the trail. I sit and wait as I can hear them but I can't see them. To be honest I was a little worried because they were close and I was walking in tall grass. I thought for sure they were going to charge me..... Anyway, I get to the spot where it was eating and I'm looking. I hear them past so heavy shrub and in a clearing of more grass. I decided to wait before I moved because I was making a lot of noise in the grass of course. I'm looking and looking and bam, I see one through a thin spot in the grass about 30 yards away with its face in the mud. I flip the safety, throw the sights up, and bang, dropped in its tracks without a step! Shot it right in the neck from the top! Then about 5 of them scattered and they were huge! I didn't cycle my gun as I wasn't expecting to see others so I missed a shot at a second that ran across by the one I shot. Not a loss really as this one is a good size.
So that's the story. I will say that dragging this thing through the tall grass and up a hill about gave me a stroke lol.
