In the news for a good cause

Post by 357 S&W » Tue Oct 26, 2010 3:55 am

Friends,
I did not know until my friend called me up and shared the link with me. I was in the news last week for helping out a golf and country club get rid of some pest wild pigs. we were able to get 5 so far( after the news was aired) and they range between 125 lbs to 205lbs. here is the link, with one of our first pig's picture.

Very nice. How difficult is it to get a moderator for the shotgun there?I ask because I read about city folks hearing gunshots in the middle of night.Any thermal/nightvision equipment used?

We are not allowed to use any moderators here on our guns, so I am not sure where to find them. We were using just a plain 2 million candle power spotlight.
