neck shots do it every time

Instead of celebrating after the first hit, shoot again. boar can be dangerous. Always double tap and make damn sure they're dead. Some boar will keep running around like mad until they're heart is stopped. I once put 3 shots in a boards chest cavity and it was still running

Hell did u find that hog

Great vid! Love the snicker after the shot. I use a marlin guide gun in 45-70.

@ratbertovich boars have a thick plate behind the shoulder so the recommended shot is behind the ear
-
@deeringdeluxe i know what ya mean. hit one right behind the front legs once and it ran off like nothing happened
-
wait now that i think about it, are boars and feral hogs the same? cuz if not then that kinda screws up wat i just said
-
i personnaly rather using a .22, but then again the kind of boars i hunted are probably not the same (place/state) or something, i went to south tex with my godfather and got 28 kills with my henry lever action .22, most kills were at about 30-50 yards though and they were spine or brain shots on hogs that were between 80 snd 350 pounds ir so

the boar said : I'm Juggernaut Bitch!!!(Ran away)
-
maybe its not the same animal
Boars do that. I've seen many a boar carrion with headshots, even some with either the lower jaw or the upper jaw shot off. Obviously, they escaped the hunt and then died.
Two tips to the fellow hunter: 1- place the shot in the lungs/heart area when you have them broadside, 2- always follow up with a safety shot instead of celebrating with your camera guy :-D

Good vid. I personally use a 30-06 and shoot wild hogs in the head when possible. You just have to make sure you get a good brain shot. A heart/lung shot will kill them for sure, but they will sometimes run off unless you break their spine.
