This is the Nikita Koloff I hear when I think about my Russian trophy boar http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPVOmB0p0SA#t=1m36s |

Nikita Koloff - 200lb Russian Trophy Boar and Wrestler - The Russian Nightmare Tag Team
Both are 'EVIL' Russian Alpha-Male Warriors so the name is perfect. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ljxej2CEq4I Wrestling promos and hog attacks. Good stuff. I hear 'the' Nikita Koloff's voice whenever I think of 'my' Nikita Koloff. |

In my opinion, that was due to my self training to work on stopping that and a personality type I have. I had 'heighted awareness' and was 'hyper focused' but no thumping heart. Looking back, it was a calm, cold blooded kill shot. I don't think that any amount of training can prevent people from getting excited, I think it's almost all personality type. My hunting buddy still gets excited and shakes every time he shoots something, and that after killing hundreds of somethings. Lots of other guys I hunt with do too. I on the other hand, don't get overly excited ever, I don't startle at loud noises and I don't jump when people try to scare me. I also make my best shots when under pressure. The few seconds before I shoot it seems like time slows down and everything moves very fluidly. The crosshairs seem like they're stuck to the target and unlike when I'm target shooting or sighting in a rifle, I don't think about breathing, keeping steady, pulling the trigger or anything else, I just do it and all too quickly it's all over. Congrats on your hog, it's a nice one and welcome to the world of hog hunting! |

You are on target. It is a relatively rare personality type that is shown in these situations (especially for a first time hunter). Mental preparation, physical conditioning and 'real life' scenario simulations that I constructed for myself helped out, too. And everything moves in slow motion for me, too (even though everything is going in high speed before me). |

 Cabela's Grand Opening in Allen, TX on April 16, 2011.
Brian Quaca {Pigman}, Bill Kilgore {Hunter} and Nikita Koloff {Russian Trophy Boar with 3" Cutters} enjoy an opportunity to take a photo together on a very busy day for Pigman. Nikita Koloff has a history of anger issues but Pigman's uplifting personality makes even a big, bad, male dominate boar like Nikita smile for the camera. =====
7 months ago I did not even know who www.pigmantv.com was. Now I drive to Allen with Nikita to take a photo with Pigman.
