My son scored on his first javelina (second hunt..) this past weekend. We had a great time!!!
We were helping-out at a Youth Camp hosted by the Arizona Deer Association (ADA) during the youth javelina hunt for the weekend. One of the other volunteers glassed some pigs up for us on Saturday morning (we owe him a HUGE thank-you). We moved-in closer, and had to wait them out over a brush choked draw for a 1/2 hour or so. We knew they were there, but they were not showing themselves. They finally started to move, and this one stopped quartering slightly away in the bottom of the draw at a pretty steep downward angle. He nailed this guy 'sniper style' layed-out over my backpack on a rock. One shot through the boiler room with the .308 did the trick!
Nothing compares to being with your children for times like these!!! ;-)
