Hogs can hurt you

Post by kd8jgu »

It has been a moth now
Was out filling feeders
Decided to change cards in cameras
Left cell phone in truck with side arm
Being lazy cut thru brush in stead of taking path
Being late returning home wife called two gents I hunt with
They found me laying in a run off face bloody and pretty dazed
To cut this short had broken nose, a few busted ribs and right leg badly brused
They went out and pulled camera card
Come to find out spooked a sow with piglets
They have not shown me picks yet, but say sow hit my right leg I went in air kissed a tree with my nose and each and every hog ran over me
***Yes I am lucky***
May my aim be true and my arrow fly straight

Them hogs can get nasty, especially if they think you're a threat to their young. Glad to hear you're gonna be ok! Get healed up and then you can even the score! :evil:

Glad you are ok!
Always been on my bucket list to hunt an animal that hunts you back!
Before my hunting days I used to tease my father in law every time he talked about deer hunting, at that time I thought it was as easy as going in to a field, picking the deer you wanted, shoot it, and go home.
I used to tell him he should hunt cows, but call the farmer on the way out to tell him what he was going to do, so someone could shoot back.
Obviously know different now, but it sure used to piss him off.
If you are not willing to learn, nobody can help you, if you are willing, nobody can stop you.

I might be wrong but if you have a CHL I think you can carry while bow hunting.

I always carry while bow hunting in MI and any other state that honors my carry permit.

Wow! That's so scary. I got charged on my first hog hunt years ago. Horrible. I'm glad you're okay and praise Jesus that His hand was and is on you. :D
