Subject: Youngest child shot his first hog!

Took my Youngest one out hunting this weekend and within an hour and a half he shot a pig, but as luck would have it we couldn't find it, it squeeled for what seemed 5 minutes while running thru the woods, but no blood trail! My boy, 10 Yrs old was smiling ear to ear holding his new 410 when I got to him, but he said it right, his aim was off, he hit it in the Butt!

I was fiddling around with something in my stand when the shot rang out, I damn near fell out of the stand, I wasn't ready for it and I couldn't get the stand down fast enough, I was close enough but he wanted to sit in the ladder stand by himself, he wasn't having any part of me being anywhere next to him, he's been hunting with me since he was still in diapers, (That's the good thing about running dogs, kids get in on the hunts too), just not with a gun till now, some things just can't make you any happier, even though we didn't recover it, it was still a very good day, this happen Sat. about 4:30 pm, he woke me up this morning at 4 AM dressed, he sat in the stand in the dark for about 30-40 minutes, I went around the corner an sat against a tree, thinking he wouldn't last two minutes, Daylight was breaking so I got in my stand, we sat there till 9 am, my oldest boy wouldn't last that long, HE's hooked!
