Good thing you were wearing your Duluth "Tougher than an angry boar" jeans. That sucker looked to be at least 300#.

I have hunted hogs for 38 years (handguns, shotguns, traditional muzzleloaders and rifles) and have never been charged. I guess I'm doing something wrong.

Doc Horton how close was the hog in the second video. Hard to tell but looked close enough to get the blood pumping.

Doc Horton how close was the hog in the second video. Hard to tell but looked close enough to get the blood pumping. About 4 steps....he was pretty dang close. The strange thing is I felt completely calm and steady while he was coming at me...it wasn't until a couple seconds after he dropped that the adrenaline dump happened, Lol.

I am new to hunting because of this very topic. I was out walking on my property when I unknowingly came upon a sleeping pig. I never saw him until he stood up. In my mind he was the biggest pig that ever existed. I was VERY close. He started popping his mouth and was making the scariest noises. I started to step backwards, and he charged me. Luckily, I was close to a horseapple tree....which I made it to the top of in world record speed. I have never been so scared in my life. It changed my world, and now I am actively seeking my revenge. I've gotten a few hogs so far, but not the one I'm looking for....yet!
