[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 96261, member: 25"] Great story Mike, I have had the "good fortune" to get in real close and personal with some hogs. A while back we tippy-toed into a patch of mesquite and cactus where we knew a bunch of hogs had bedded for their siesta. There was a couple of good boars we wanted to check. More we went into the patch the more sleeping hogs we spotted, including one about 25 feet from us that we did not see initially. Exciting stuff, particularly since we did not have to get in that close but did anyway, and we each had muzzleloaders so only one shot. We were testing some prototype bullets, picking shots that ensured the bullet would stay in the hog. I busted one going away, big sow, tried to angle to the off shoulder. She took off straight into a patch of big cactus, then the damndest screetching and piggie noises. Turned out she bumped right into a big old boar. She was fading pretty quick but he did his thing on her, thats what all the noise was about. I sneaked up to the cactus and saw the boar at a 45 degree angle. Nasty things, those hogs. I shot the boar also, got two bullets back out of that deal. That boar was an opportunist, but he paid the price [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
