     I was just finishing up some last minute work on the computer when the wife whispered "I just saw a big hog!"  "Where at" I gleefully asked closing up the laptop?  "He was on the stump between our shed and the neighbors.  But I think he went under the neighbors shed?"
Figuring he would be back out shortly, I snatched up the rifle and went out on the deck.  Wasn't 5 minutes later and the hog popped out and waddled down the bank.  Right when he reached the stump, I whistled, stopping him in his tracks.  The old cherry stump provided a nice safe back stop.  Lining up right between his eye and ear, I touched off the .22 and was rewarded with a meaty "Plop!"  The hog collapsed in the tall grass.  I could see his tail waving to and fro...By the time I walked over there he was stationary.  It was a nice sized boar Silverback, and No. 16 for the year.  Hopefully there will be a few more as Summer crawls to an end...

Good Hunting!

I don't know about the waning part, but it does look dead.   Nice shot.
