Ace, The photo of the fat boar on the left was taken at Tioga hunt ranch in north central Pennsylvania. I used Win. factory ammo loaded with a 250gr Partition and when I shot this boar all I could think of is when you hook a large bass that comes flying out of the water because thats exactly what this pig looked like when I shot him. He jumped straight up in the air and when he landed he stumbled around till I put another round. The other 2 boar were from a more pure Eurasian blood line and were nasty. After I shot the one with the stick in its mouth I walked up on it and it was trying to pull himself to me while snapping its jaw to get my foot. I put the stick in its mouth and shot him with a Bisly in 45 Colt. The one behind the tree was very large indeed... he was 300lb or better. They were shot with the 454 loaded with a 260gr Partition. The place I shot them was Cherry Ridge in western Penn. that no longer has boar but is strickly a whitetail ranch.Thanks for your interest in my hunt and hope you can get back out one day soon,James
PS -the boar in the snow was taken with a FA`s 475
      the picture with my red & black jacket was the first boar I took using my Redhawk and Win. old 240gr LSWC ammo
      the black & white boar was dropped with a S&W 460
