The WORST Double lung ever.

[pdk25]

As long as Terry is teaching, I will throw in a few more tidbits.

Just some things that I have noticed about hogs after the shot.  If you hit a hog in the guts or soft tissues, especially after dark, they usually scoot out of there and keep on going.  If there is a sounder, they usually join with the rest.  The odds of recovering a hog that behaves like that are slim.  If they run initially, then stop and stand in cover, away from the rest of a sounder, or as a lone hog, they are usually hit hard, and will likely die within that cover, often quickly, if not pushed.  I always feel good about a hit where they do this.  Sneak out of the area and come back quietly in an hour to check things out if I can.

Yes Patrick... I got more on that... give mexa bit...

[Terry Green]

If it's with a sounder AND it runs off WITH them it will go and go..... if it separates, 60 yards or less . Most likely less, especially if not pushed.

Recovery is a whole different story and needs it's own thread...

Zwickey 4 blade busted AND split the rib on entrance AFTER passing  through the shoulder....

Did you pay attention to the TWO  holes???

This is most informative, thank you.

Well it was a good shot.  And obviously the tracker was up to snuff on his ability.  I'd say you did great Mr. Greene.  Those are the ones that keep your skills sharp and your humility honest.

[Terry Green]

Tracking was not a problem.... Stevie Wonder could follow....

[GCook]

Dang.  I like those kind.

[Terry Green]

Oh, I forgot to add..... not only did that head hit the thinnest part of the lungs, it did't ANY main arteries from them or the heart.... hence the 'hitch' in the recovery as written on the LTR2 thread.
