well boys and girls (if your out there) my last post told of the 07 club hunt where I managed a 30 pointer but as I said the water levels where still a little high. well we arranged a second hunt for the club not as many people made it out there but the water levels there perfect. I attach a couple of pics for your viewing of my 4 day weekend. the two other lads I was with decided on camping out on the edge of the floodplain for one night so with the quads packed with fuel and water for 24 hours we where off. as we hit the first plain we had to cross we could see it was going to be a top weekend.

Top post there mate. You have certainly done very well with some beaut hogs on the ground. I like the mud encrusted one the best. Not huge in tusk but mean looking nonetheless.
Awsome!, those hogs up that way have really long heads on em hey!
