Mounted and bore sighted the Thor LT yesterday afternoon. Made a pre-dawn visit to a corn field and was able to kill this boar. Also shot/knocked down another hog that made it back into the standing corn. It's a mixed planting with IC Peas so you can't look down the rows to see any hogs. Buzzards will confirm the kill in a couple of days if I made a lethal shot.

Maybe, if they are starving. Buzzards around here don't touch them if they have something else to eat.

Guess our buzzards are hungry down here. I've had them clean up piles of 8-10 in a couple of days.

Good deal. Much better than them stinking things up for weeks while they rot. BTW, congrats on the 1st kill with the new gun. That is always a good feeling!

I take a knife and cut them down the side from neck to tail. The buzzards appreciate them being zipped for easy access.

I keep a retractable razor knife/box cutter in my possibles bag for hogs. I use that first every time so I don't dull my good blades just getting thru the hair and mud.
