Bad... Ass! Nice

Wallabies. Little bastards. Kill a whole bunch of trees. We used to spotlight then in New Zealand regularly. Hard to hit on the run!

And pig hunting - with dogs and a knife. Hard core.


You win.

I spent a lot of time in Nelson, on the South Island. The pig hunters there really are crazy. None of the guys I knew would ever dream of killing a pig with a rifle---it has to be done the old way, which involves dogs, and a knife on a stick. The dogs get maimed quite a bit by the tusks of those boars, but eventually they grab the ears and the pig stops moving, long enough to get stuck in the heart. The best part is next: The hunters throw the boar on TOP of the dog crates, and drive around town. You cannot imagine how those dogs go crazy, with a dead pig on top their cage.

Most of the locals think the hunter men are nuts. In fact, even the hunters think the hunters are nuts. Great fun.

Back in my 20's... Milfs

Being in my early 20s I am still hunting these. They're great.

Being in my 30's, they're now called "cougars"

At least the one I keep at home most of the time is.

Growing up in Kentucky we use to go to the county dump, line up the trucks, turn on the head lights and shoot rats, possums, what ever crawled into the light. .22 to .50 cal. After you shot a few the others would come out to feed on carcasses.

I hunted bear from my porch in Alaska, rock chucks and badger in Montana, fish with a bow and gun in a variety of locations, and I wasn't able to pull the trigger but I was on a seal hunt with a family friend.

I've actually never shot at anything other than paper, clays, steel, and the occasional tannerite.

We need to do something for this boy...he has had a sheltered life.....

Growing up the only thing that was somewhat different, was on the Eastside we hunted Whistle Pigs sometimes. Now, my uncle from back home(Ellensburg) has me hooked on bow fishing. Something very satisfying about sticking those invasive, nasty Carp.

Not sheltered, really. Just didn't grow up around guns and only got into them a few years ago.

We ate a deer that I killed with my truck a couple years ago, does that count?

No pics of the deer, but here's the truck. The dent in the grill was another whitetail that same winter.
