I got out to the woods again yesterday. The jar of peanut butter I hung up was still there. At least I know now how to keep the raccoons from getting it (and anything else, apparently). I did some tree knocks but there were no replies. I can't remember if I mentioned before that I got replies to my tree knocks from that location from two different directions the first time I tried. My wife was with me, but now she won't go back there anymore. LOL. It was hot, but not nearly as bad as last time. I went and waited on the hogs, but they didn't cooperate either. I've shot two hogs, one with 7.62x39 and one with a 30/30. On both occasions the hogs ran off and I was unable to find them. I never saw any buzzards or smelled anything so they might not have died. The one I shot with the 30/30 was enormous, the biggest one I've ever seen. From now on I'm using my shotgun with 1 1/4 oz RIO "armored" slugs at 1510 fps. If that won't drop them, I give up! Oh yeah, I got two trail cams today. I plan on getting them figured out and set up in the next few days. Stay tuned...

Yeah, I found no blood just a few tracks in the hard ground. The big black one sounded like it only ran about 50-60 yards and then stopped and started thrashing around. It made a lot of noise as it ran away. When I heard it thrashing around I thought it was in its death throes and was finished. I was not about to go tracking that monster in the dark though. I came back the next morning but found nothing. I guess they didn't die because I never saw any buzzards either. I know I didn't miss, it was only about 60 yards or so.
