Suprise Suprise Suprise................maybe
This may be old news, if so excuse me..........
I picked up the new ( to me at least ) Speer Loading Manual # 14. I was browsing through the handgun section first and on page 1009 in the 475 Linebaugh section there was JT posed with a rather large wild boar, the caption led one to beleive that JT had actually shot the boar with a revolver. I think if you look real close at the boar you can still see the grill marks from a 81 Chev. pickup. I'm sure JT just jumped out to attempt first aid to the poor pig. I think the revolver was to keep the 'cotes away until the pig regained its feet........is that how it happened Jim ?.. ......................JJ
PS....sorry if I confused anyone with the JT initials, I ment to say JimT. There is no doubt that the other JT ( John Taffin ) would have jumped on the boar with a dull butter knife. The pic is in fact our own dear James Taylor..........JJ

Pretty close.
I ran it into a thicket where it only had one way out ... past me.
As it ran by I breathed on it and flapped my arms and it collapsed.
Now, you have to understand ... we had been camping out in the Ozark heat and humidity for 5 days with only slim jims, vienna sausage and stale coffee to get by on. I was pretty ripe by that time.

mmmm....Vienna sausages.
The hunter's staple. But don't try them at home - they never taste the same.

Re: Suprise Suprise Suprise................maybe
I can take the slim jims, the eggs and cowboy/hunter coffee, but, I can't stand vienna sausages. My brother used to eat that whole little can of them things by himself.

Only 1 can? It takes 2 or 3 cans to make a meal when all you got is hardboiled eggs and slim jims to go with them.

Sounds to me like the boar took one whiff and committed suicide...

That boar expired due to lack of O2 when JT breathed at him.
