Hunting Giant South Carolina Boars

What a monster!

That is all that needs to be said for the giant boar hog that Rick L. from West Virginia killed last week right behind our Luray lodge. The 400 pounder strolled out for some corn just after daylight and into Rick’s crosshairs, which helped him accurately deliver a good shot to the massive pig. And while he did run back into the woods a ways, Justin and Quentin where able to recover Rick’s first wild hog ever so that he could not only take home tons of great tasting pork, but put his huge head on the wall to remember his hunt forever. So congratulations to Rick on his first hog and Cypress Creek’s biggest porker in some time.

As for things around the lodge, we have mainly been working on getting things ready for August 15th by moving stands, cutting shooting lanes and putting up more feeders in our best spots. We have also been doing quite a bit of work around the lodge and out back on our 1000 yard shooting range in preparation for our long-range shooting class that will be held next weekend. And while we don’t have many hunters during the summer, we will have a fairly steady stream of small groups looking to put some pork on the ground despite the heat and bugs, so make sure and keep checking back for more stories and pictures!
