Steve MalinverniIt is CLOSED
Yes it is closed, OHHH yess it is closed, we finished very well I think but

IT IS CLOSED !!!!!!!!
Which is the argument??? The hunting season is closed (probably, because we have some hope to hunt in Liguria Region) and I have to wait next September for a new HUNTING SEASON.
However what happened on the last week end? ooohhhh weeelll, you know, it was really cold between 2 and -2 Celsius degrees, it snowed a little on Sunday and to be short, have I ever speak...... OK OK, I was saying that in two days we bagged 14 boars (12 an 2) and my contribute has been 2 boars knocked down with two shots, one each, on Saturday.
2 of them, male, were big, more than 120kg each, and with good teeth both.
Saturday bag
Sunday big tusker wild boar male teeth (I did not shot anyone of these big tuskers

)
But this was yesterday ... near 10 month to the next opening, how can I survive? (ok it is a littlebit too much dramatic, but you know.....) I am already suffering from withdrawal symptoms.

the previous smile illustrated my today condition, I'mgoing to be depressed I know.

meteMy comment Stefano ? Enjoy, enjoy !!

My recipe on the other thread was simple, smoked boar hocks with white beans . Perhaps all of you would like to add recipies for Stefano's cinghiale ? ...Someone in a nearby area started to raise boar but they escaped.They then 'diappeared'. My friend just said there were people in the area who had pork in their freezers !!!

QnnNice trophies. Our driven hunt season closes 28. February but boar hunt is here all year around. But you can shoot only hogs or max 2 year old pigs outside driven hunt season.
