VERY VERY ODD story for this one. My friend and I got in the stand at around 6:30 on saturday. We didn't expect to see anything because like to weeks ago there was a forest fire. But! thank God the fire dept. got there in time to save our stand that we recently built, and the property. Well anyway, we were out there for about 20 minutes and then OUT OF nowhere a BIG BEE flew in the stand landed on my shoulder then flew into a whole in the piece of wood. I was FREAKING OUT! I hate bees so much. Then my buddy and i wanted to see if there was really a hive in there. we shoved a stick in the entrance so they can't get out, then we were hitting on the wood. and while i was going to get a drink, I looked down at the feeder and there it was ! I couldn't believe it that it be there because we were making a good bit of noise. my friend and i both got to our seats, we both got .270s and we didn't want it to get away. So we talked where to shoot. Then we counted down 3,2,1. BOOM. shot at the same time,I shot him in the head, my friend got him in the lungs. we estimated him to be around 150-200 lb.

Then the interesting part happened. We couldn't get the truck pack there to clean it at my house so we put gloves on and dragged it about 100 yards away and started cleaning it. we have never clean a hog before so we didn't quite know how hard it was going to be but we did it and took it home in bags to clean again. PLUS we were in a rush when cleaning because a few days early we were walking the property and saw this print...
thats my friends hand as a comparison... we think its a bear but idk..
