Good shooting, I too normally will keep shooting at a wounded hog until it's down. I've even been known to come back and put another round into a kicking hog thats down. Too often them hogs will get up and run off. I guess they are camera shy!

true. i even like to shoot the surrounding dirt clods to see if they'll flinch. sometimes they like to play possum.

Ha Ha Ha! I do the same thing. I just don't post my misses.

You heard me say, "Nothing wrong with that," after James put another round into the hog's head after it was down. It isn't a bad idea, particularly on big hogs.

Definitely cheap insurance.

Brian took the shot as the pig trots and it hit the spot that caused the blood to clot. Well done Brian!

I did it tonight. Snuck up two boars, picked the largest next to the tree line and put him down. The other ran out into the pasture and I put one in him. He was wounded so I let him do his pig circle thing and put one in his ear. The whole time I could her another animal running toward me. I thought it was one of the horses. Nope one pissed off hog. The first I shot and He did not stay down. I shot him four more times and he still made the trees. I'll find him later.
