Photo Night 2: This Group Knows What They Are Doing @HogSWAT
Guide Hank documented the Hunting experience on a 2 Night Hog Hunting Trip. On the first night, he spotted a Single Pig in the first field they checked, but it walked off disinterested. After checking other fields and circling back to the initial one, Guide Hank decided to make a 1000-Yard Stalk to the back of the field where he saw the same Hog Reappear. Determined to take it down, he and the group successfully closed the distance and comfortably shot the Wild Boar from around 90 yards, dropping it with the first shot. Despite only seeing one Hog that night, the team remained optimistic for the next night's Hunt.
On the second night, Guide Hank and Guide Capt. Ben split up for the Hog Hunt. They were able to coordinate a Group Stalk with all seven shooters, positioning themselves carefully as they approached the Wild Pigs hidden behind brush. With patience, they waited for more Pigs to reveal themselves before firing at the group and taking down five of them. Although those were the only Hogs Harvested that night, Guide Hank deemed the Thermal Hunt a great success.
