Very first boar, think I was like 15 on a dog hunt. Was trying to scare him when he bust though the brush about 20' in front of me. Dropped his hard to charge I pulled the trigger and beamed him dad cent of the forehead lol

 Last one I bagged. Damn thing got caught in the roll feeder somehow so want really a Hunt just a dispatch

And still my biggest to date. Out the head in an ant nest so they could clean it down to the bone and something rane off with it... Would have been an amazing skull for the wall

The Forest of Dean near me is over run with them . I’ve been invited a couple of times but I’ve been too busy . It’s a bit like deer shooting to me , I can take it or leave it . But I will get around to it sometime. I was given one last year and had if turned into bacon and sausages . And bloody good they were too . So for no other reason than to get one in the freezer , I will be out for one .
