I went out last night intending to take a small hog for the smoker and ended up getting this 200 pounder. So what's the twist you ask.. Well...... I know many of you on here have had close encounter with hogs, but I never have.. Until last night. I shot this hog at 13 yards quartering away behind the shoulder, complete pass through! The hog ran about 50 yrds and laid down.. I watched him about 15 minutes and figured he was done!! I started walking over to him, and he wasn't laying on his side but with his feet under him.. I thought that was a little odd so at about 35 yrds I threw a rock at him.. That's when he exploded up whirled around and was about to give me an education. I had a Glock 10mm as my side arm, I had just bought this pistol and hadn't even shot it. I took aim at his head at about 35 yrds or so squeezed the trigger and his stiffened up slowly fell over. Talk about a pure luck shot I hit that joker almost square between the eyes with a 180 buffalo bore round.. Taught me one heck of a lesson.. Next time, give'em a little more time..

WOW, thats wild. I haven't had them charge me, but have had some wounded ones threaten too. Its spooky at heck at night when that happens.

Good kill!

Looks like that 10mm caused a nose bleed! Neat story! Good eating too...

Dang good shootin!

Good story and glad you're ok

I like the ones that try to get ya through the trap and it still scares the crap outta me....like holding your hand up to the jar with the rattler in it!!! LOL!

Wow!

WOW Nice Piggie, and awsome story thank's for sharing.

Good shot killer.

Yea i like the one's in the trap that try to kill you though the trap, I always think hope I welded this thing good !!!

I would need to change my underwear if a hog charged at me after playing dead. lol

nice shootin

HOLY CRAP......................

I agree!!

Dang good shot!

I had one charge my Polaris Ranger one time.....or was it I charged him with my Polaris Ranger.....

Long Story but in the end the pig lost to my buddy who took him out!!!!

Cool Story, and by the looks of those choppers, you're right....he'd have taught you a thing or two.

nice snout

Great story and awesome shot! Makes me wanna go do a bit of pig stickin

Sounds like a thrilling hunt. I want to use you for a reference next time the naysayers tell me hogs don't charge!

Anyone who would say that has never been in the same woods with a hog...from that point on I would not pay attention to anything they said.

I have heard stories and seen it to be true where, after shooting a hog they will go back in the woods only for you to folliw the blood trail and for them to circle around and wait for you on that blood trail. They can be smart piggy's.

Sweet

That was a first for me, and wouldn't hurt my feelers if that was the last!! Talk about getting your heart pumping!! WOW!!

Dang. You got lucky. Nice hog
