Sure I parked by the bridge off of 95. Took the trail and stayed to the left of that private land to your right. I got the hog at the third corner of that property. About 5 meters from the fence. It's a group of 6 and 4 of them are three times as big as the one female I got. They gathered in a big bush and was about 10-15 yards from me right off that trail. Got so excited cause being my first pig I could've reloaded another arrow to shoot at those big ones but didn't . Next time I won't do that rookie mistake lol also it's warm now so ticks are abundant I had a ton on that pig good thing I always carry a large bottle of rubbing alcohol in my back pack. I poured it all over the pig before I skinned it the ticks all scattered away so I can do my work. The land owners came to my location and were pretty cool and said they got hogs also along the fence line. Easy for them they are in the clear side with a golf cart buggy lol and just FYI I used some hog esterus on my boots and a descenter spray on my clothes. They never saw me coming it was amazing how close I got.

Correction it's the fourth corner on the fence of that property to your right.

[LonestarGent]

Very nice man! Glad you got one! I used scent block but never thought about estrus

[Schultz1503]

I didn't even know they sold it I found it at Cabela's for small bottle kind of expensive for 10 bucks but I made it last a long time and it's real strong scent

Sounds like it was a good investment to help you get a first hog kill!

Those were probably hog lice, not ticks.
