New Years Eve hunt 2011

Look at the dental work on this guy. Here is a closer shot of the dental work from the previous post. Below are both hogs that Johnson shot on New Years Eve.

The one on the left had just come out of a pond and was soaking wet. That was a lot of pork in the bed of the truck. The one on the right was covered in mud and has a splitting headache after charging Johnson.

I added the picture below to show how thick his hide was. Some hunters call it a shield some call it fat, either way it is pretty tough. Mark Johnson shot this one with a 150 grain 30-06 Winchester ballistic tip, from about 80 yards and there was no exit. After getting hit it ran 30 to 40 yards and dropped. Pretty tough little guy.
