[QUOTE="Hunter 257W, post: 3207313, member: 12277"] It is definitely a different kind of hunting if you can call it hunting. It's more pure shooting really. I used to sit in the truck overlooking a field while drinking gatoraide and reading gun magazines. I'd look up every now and then and check out the field edges with binoculars. When I saw one, I'd get the rifle out and go to the sandbags already set up on the hood of the truck. The other way to hunt them is more sporting and that is to stalk along field edges. I remember one in particular I stalked. We were coming home from church and drove by a bean field where a trophy hog was stealing beans. I got home and in my old clothes as fast as I could, grabbed my 22 Hornet and took off on foot. It was about 3/4 mile along the woods/field edge and I had some weeds for cover close to the hogs mound. I was almost too close by the time I could see him as he was staring straight ahead motionless obviously aware I was there. Just before he bolted I popped him with a 35 grain V-Max. [/QUOTE]
