THE MONDS FAMILY GOES HUNTING

Nathan Monds and John stalked this same hog for a full two hours.  They got up on him several times only to have him take off and out of site again and again.  

When Nathan finally got within 35 yd of him the startled boar turned to stand him off.  As Nathan threw up his gun...the boar thought better of it.

And as this huge boar wheeled around to run, Nathan made a shot that rolled and downed him.

That was really some fine shooting, Nathan, and you got yourself an awesome hog!

You can see all of the Monds' fine trophy hogs below (and a few that don't quite make the trophy category), but Ellen's stag hunt just couldn't be ignored here.

What a beautiful red deer stag Ellen Monds got.  Her shot hit home and the large deer - right out of Robin Hood's woods - fell.

Ben was as happy as if he'd taken the shot himself!

Once the dang tree got out of his way, Nathan aced his shot and got himself this big, burley boar with ivory to spare!

Ellen and Ben had as much fun as Nathan did.

It was a real pleasure spending the day with y'all!
Some birthday presents come wrapped up with bows, and some come with hog breath and a bad attitude. Ellen Monds got the second kind, but wouldn't have it any other way.

And darn if that girl's not a killer cook on top of it! Thanks for the picnic and the great company Ellen and Ben!

If a family can be more proud of a son, we don't know how.  Jonathanhad a great bow hunt and got himself a trophy wild boar that he'll remember for a lifetime - a huge, toothy, mule foot! He's surrounded by brothers Josh, Nathan and Mitchell, and on the right are mom, Ellen, and dad, Ben.
Jonathan did his part in making the day memorable because he took his humungous boar down with a single arrow.

You can see the mule feet in this view. The unsplit hoof is in the middle, and the dew claws are on the sides.

Josh got himself this slick and gorgeous meat hog.

In the best Monds tradition, it took him only one arrow.
Now, Mitchell and Ben know what makes the best eating in the whole world: wild pork McNuggets!
Here's where it started...

Ellen and Ben Monds know how to celebrate an anniversary.

They had a romantic day hunting in the woods and took home some wild boar to boot!
