[QUOTE="Kingrabbit, post: 318623, member: 11215"] outerspace, im pretty much new to the hog hunting, but what i have seen so far is once you shoot the others take of quick like ninja.. most folks i have come across attempt to ,,,shoot to kill cleanly,, and hold off on other shots on the hogs running off for fear of just wounding them.. even though these pigs are so destructive i havent run across anyone who would just fire into a group of em on semi auto, and hardly anyone i have met leave a dead hog behind. they are used for meat unless there is something they see wrong with the animal..like a really bad smell of the meat , tumors/boils.. even the folks who have their freezers stuffed with hog meat, will give the meat to others or donate it to shelters and such. the areas i have hunted in, the pigs have a quick exit back into some shrub brush or a stand of trees. they are difficult to get in close on if you are stalking. they hear and smell very well, and any noise they are not comfortable with they just leave the area, they dont tend to stop and look for whats making the noise like a deer or coyote they just go,, most of the hogs come out at night so that limits the hunters visibility, and the folks getting like 8 or 9 a night are the ones using night vision or thermal scopes , and have multiple properties that they are allowed acsess to..(which i highly reccomend you try, we had a great time).. and most of the hunters dont have access to night these devices..so most of their hunts are a good clean solo kill, some get lucky and get a double when the two are next to each other, or ya get a dumb one that circles back around through the kill area.. thats pretty much what i have seen so far, again im only a rookie here and only been at this for a year so if i am way off base my apoligies.. just what i have learned so far..
