This boar came on to the 400yd bait site at 03:51hrs. About 4 minutes later, he took a 180gr accubond with 2115 ft lbs and still ran about 120 yards before giving up the ghost. With a double lung wound, I was amazed he made it that far.

Still haven't learned how to post two pics at once.
 
Re: One Tough Boar

good stuff man!!! hunting hogs in hawaii is a part of growing up... if you don't mind, where was your hunt? something that i found that is surprising to a lot of people, is that if you're not doing the traditional spear or knife hunt, hunters use only a 22 LR...the idea is to minimize damage, thereby maximizing the amount of useable meat...wild hogs are commonly marinated and smoked in hawaii...

Re: One Tough Boar

it is amazing on how animals react to get hit. One will run a hundred yards while another one hit in the exact same will DRT. Nice Piggie.
