Nice Boar I think I need a 300HH
 
Nice porker!
 
Short, stubby ones, but I didn’t go fishing around for a proper look as he was too rank and diseased, blind in at least one eye, ears ripped.

Yeah fair enough, are any of them up that way edible?
 
Rough old warrior and plenty battle scars. Interesting trophy.
 
I like the .300 H&H. I should have hung onto mine.
 
He is black as can be isn't he. Congrats
Bruce
 
Congrats sir!
 
Very nice, congrats!
 
Nice pick-up Ben.

Early Dry season boars are usually hard to come by.

Is that a burn in the backround ?
If so I found that they come around fresh burns to forage for whatever may be found on the surface, insects, lizards etc.

Well done, nice looking rifle too.
 
Dry nice. Good hunting.[emoji4]

Cheers, Paul! Learn something new everyday! Makes sense, as he appeared almost completely blind. The burn was indeed pretty fresh, from last weekend.
 
Interestingly we believe we’ve been just behind catching this guy out several times over the last year. We couldn’t even get him on baits last year or yesterday, but the burn at dawn caught him out.
 
What rifle and caliber, Ben?
 
Sorry saw the 300

Be careful of this Wolfen guy. 2 messages. Both trying to sell something. He PM'ed me trying to sell something and he PM'ed my friend on here trying to sell something. Fishy.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.
