I've seen some great hits on hogs that didn't leave a lot of blood and marginal ones that bled a lot.
Twenty yards into the blood trail I knew we would find this hog, didn't want to jinx us by saying anything aloud.
When we found the hog, it looked like it had died running plowing up the dirt with his snout as he fell.
No more popping teeth and bluff charges from this guy!

I am guessing its weight around 220 lbs with great cutters.
