Congrats on finishing the season on a high note. The bag isn't the defining feature of a season or a hunt but going out for a duck or a near duck doesn't feel as chill as it's supposed to.

There is a guy that hunts here in France - Feliew - He's been in a few of the Wild Boar Fever movies.

He does a compilation video very month of videos that people send him. Here is one of them.

The mountain areas looks a lot like where I hunt.

I must really try to do a hunt if I ever visit France again, was not on my menu back in my travel days.

There's a Turkish guy who also does boar hunt vids but I can't remember his channel name. All seem to be taken with slugs and some are at surprisingly long range

Have you watched some of the Turkish hunts. Their safety records are nothing to brag about. Videos show cars and other hunters when the boars cross between them and shots are fired.

@oafpatroll I think this is the guy you are referring to. You can see that there is enough money for high tech goodies.
