15" Hog
This is the pics of a afternoons hog hunting. We are not really trophy hunters but my wife now has the bragging rights to a 15" warthog.

To make everything worse it is a 1/4" longer than the best warthog tusks I have. She used a 22Hornet and made a very good lung shot. The hog went for about 30 meters.

I did not shoot a 15" hog but it was just as much fun hunting my two "small" hogs. Big Grin

This was at Tom Burke. North western part of South Africa, right on to the Botswana border.

There are a lot of warties there!

When my wife looked at this she said "Ugg...Beauty and the Beast." She like the contrast from such a primitive looking animal and your beautiful wife. Great tusks on her boar and a trophy that I am sure she will remind you about often!

Trophies are not dead animals...they are living memories.
