North Carolina Hunters Continue Successful Hog Hunts

We have had a lot of North Carolina hunters at the lodge lately, and they have been really hammering away at the hogs. Our latest two groups this past weekend were no different.

One of the two groups hunts with us all of the time, a weekend a month to be exact, and as usual most of the four from the Ashe County Wildlife Club were all over the hogs. Unfortunately Rick did not see any while Gene and Randy had problems shooting straight (unusual for them!), so only Joe took home a monster boar… I understand that his walls are now barely holding up with great-looking mounts from their many trips down. But as hunters, we all know you can NEVER have too many, so his latest 230 pounder should go nicely with the rest.

The other three hunters down from North Carolina also saw quite a few hogs, but only took one home as well when Jeff shot a nice meat hog down on the River Friday afternoon. So, for those of you keeping tract, that makes 12 big South Carolina hogs killed and 17 missed in just the last 14 days! And four of those misses were on Saturday evening when they saw over 70 wild hogs between the 7 hunters!

We have a couple more small groups coming in during this week, so stay tuned to see how they do.

PS. I haven’t forgotten about the 3 hunters that shot the 3 hogs last Wednesday; I was off and didn’t get the pictures, so I am waiting on the lucky sportsmen to email them to me. As soon as they do, I will post them! HINT, HINT 🙂    I would also love for some of our deer hunters from this past fall to send me pictures of their deer if I didn’t get them either.
