We’ll never mind...... it was a lone bore. Who killed more ? Do unborn count? I say yes, because it’s in my favor.......

We only count them if they are already born. So you killed 1, a really good 1.

Usually I’d agree. 1 to 1. But I killed the sow w babies, so hoping someone agreed that unborn counted....

Well it really depends, do you believe that life begins at conception or at birth?

Midwaytmm, anybody can kill a boring old boar. Not everybody kills a bonus sow!

I'd say one, but it was indeed a good one to put down.

Our tiebreaker is best shot of night wins. I hit center neck, he took top of head off. Picture wouldn’t post, his shot much better. Just looking to cheat my way out of $5 running bet.....

How much was the bet with your buddy? And how much is my take as judge?

But seriously if you are putting money or even a gentleman's bet on your hunt you should clearly define the terms before the hunt. Was it who kills the most pigs or who shoots the most pigs? Is it pigs hit or pigs recovered? Does finding them the next day count? If you are going to count unborn piglets do you count suckling piglets that are running with the sow that now have lost their source of food and may die?

Absent of any terms of the bet, I'd really say you only shot one pig. Just because she had piglets inside her doesn't mean they would have all been born alive. What if one or two of them didn't make it through birth, what if some die shortly after birth because she is a poor or first time mother? Counting unborn piglets is like counting your chickens before they hatch.

Which brings up an interesting point, How are unborn piglets counted in the hog killing thread at the top of the forum?

Edited to add:

I just looked through the "Official 2017 Kill Thread" and there is one person who posted a picture of a sow with unborn piglets and counted them in the kill total. No one complained about it. So if they are acceptable in an "Official" internet thread then we have precedence and I think they have to be counted on your hunt. Of course that means the next time your buddy kills the sow with unborn he gets the count.

I'd call it a draw at 1 and 1 but I'd buy your lunch for the coolness factor of taking out 9 soon to be trouble makers.

I’d count it towards hogs killed but not hogs shot.

Yeah, I wouldn't count the ones on board, but I'd use them as a tiebreaker.

That's in interesting method. Kind of like counting center shots or "X" rings in a bullseye match.

Sow with piglets onboard wins. You likely prevented hundreds of pigs being born.

I'd say you can't count the piglets...I bet is a challenge of skill. It took no more skill on your part to kill those piglets. Any champion would agree. I'd say your bet continues on to the next hunt. Double the wager and may the best man win.
