You never know with all the pressure they have been getting in the am and pm. I'd post up by some water and wait.
And heres the story. Went out at sun up and walked to a spot were I've already shot a few hogs at. I sat for about 1.5 hours and listened to the palmettos rattle. Nothing decided to come out so I started walking down a fire break. I soon picked up a bunch of fresh tracks and followed them for about a half mile to a area with some very fresh rooting. Then I hear the wonderful sound of pigs rooting in the palmettos. I peak around the corner and see a good sized black hog ( about 150#) standing broad side at about 15 yards. I decided to pass on this hog wanting to see what my other choices were. Right then I see a white and black boar coming right at me so I decided to take him before he busted me. I pulled up and BOOM HEAD SHOT. Down for the count! I quickly walked towards the other hogs only to see a huge white and black pig sleeping in the middle of a grass field. He stood up and started to slowly walk towards the palmettos. I raised the shot gun and fired a slug at about 60 yards. Down the pig went! But not for long. He quickly stood up and let out a scream as he hauled azz into the brush. I heard him screaming for over 30 seconds as he got further and further away. Eventually I could no longer hear him. I started looking for blood and couldn't find a drop. As I walked around searching I saw another black pig walking threw the palmettos and decided not to shoot it. After a wile of looking for blood I gave up and headed the 2+ miles back to my truck to get the cart. Thee end.
nice, cool lookin pig. too bad you couldn't find a blood trail on the other one.
