They just can't hide from thermal. This video also shows just how advantageous a dark night can be when you have thermal imaging on your side. I^2 would have never even detected this hog. He was laying down 10 yards inside the tree line on a dark night. We walked up to within 10-15 yards and he never ran off. In the video you can tell he sensed/heard us. Afterwards we went inside the woods and looked out to where we were standing when we shot him and it was pitch black in those woods. The hog knew we were there, but would of had a very hard time seeing us. Thermal really is king when it comes to hog hunting!

No doubt, thermal gear is tops. Maybe some day . . .
Meanwhile, Good job! Keep going after 'em!
