Sometimes, the damage inside is massive, but there is very little blood coming from the exit wound. The hogs still bleed out, only it is internal, but there is little or no trail left behind to follow. This is due to shields and fat layers on boars and fat layers on sows helping close up the exit wounds known for helping create blood trails. Unless you are in a nice open field, however, this can make them hard to find.Īnother matter that confounds hunters and tricks them into believing hogs are tougher than they are is that they sometimes seal up after through and through shots and so don't produce blood trails or don't produce good blood trails. In that distance, they will bleed out or suffocate (lungs fill with blood) and then finally collapse. Generally, with a decent double lung or heart or heart-lung shot, a hog usually won't run more than 100 yards and commonly much less. Hogs really are not difficult to kill, but what surprises a lot of people is the hogs' propensity to run after being shot if they don't suffer CNS damage. However, with ammo testing, you get some varied results. I have found that on YouTube, everybody knows more about what I am doing than I do. Commenters on YouTube can be rather cruel in their evaluations of the video creators, their capabilities, cartridges, calibers, bullets, gear, etc. I know this from personal experience on posting vids where the results are not what people liked. It is because people tend to NOT post videos of when things don't work well. You can snipe a hog just like you can any other animal (though maybe not legal for other animals) with smaller calibers if you know what you are doing, but that doesn't make those caliber necessarily very good or ideal for 'hog hunting' in general.Īs for why there are so many good videos of hog stops on YouTube isn't because the cartridges or bullets are necessarily working just fine for hogs.
