A friend shot this boar the other week about 15 miles from Portsmouth, he came across it one evening whilst out deer stalking unfortunately it winded him and ran so he set up a bait trap and shot it a few nights later reckons it weighed 22 stone 

Was he out shooting WOOD PIGEONS at the time?

Very nice. I know they've been around a while, but sounds like they are getting more common. Another game animal for the UK and another reason to own a rifle 👍 They are hard to eradicate once established as New Zealand has proven by spending millions of dollars over many years. Difficult to stalk in woodland, but easy to shoot on feeders.
