In Soviet Russia, boar hunt you!

 

[Bisondice]

dudes lucky, but as a non hunter I feel that is how it should be, more sportish

 

[SHOTTAS]

Ya those boar in russia are huge and very aggressive.

That's the chance you take when you decide to hunt dangerous game. Go in with your eyes open and give it your best shot.

Oh, and have med-evac insurance with a plan by Global Rescue or something similar.

A bayonet would be helpful or better yet a helicopter.

The feral hogs here in the states are as big if not bigger and just as aggressive. I can tell you from personal experience that have to very careful when hunting hogs/boars. Almost every hog I have ever shot that I didn't spine or head shoot did not go down right away. Including those that I double lunged/heart shot with a .308. They get knocked down and get right back up and run into the bush, some for over a 100 yards.

Let me tell you it is more than a bit unnerving walking into the bush at night looking for a wounded hog, especially if there is a pack around. The pack will sometimes come back and try to help a wounded member.

Guess I'll take an SKS with bayonet on the hunt in Feb.

I CCW my glock in .40 when hog hunting with a bow. I've been scared, on my hands and knees in the brush with these things. I normally go to san Antonio for hogs. Goddamn right they're scary. They are like Satan's housepets. I enjoy raining arrows down on them and killing them as they are just about the nastiest creatures on this earth.

I typically shoot the juveniles as they are delicious.

 

[Fishinblues]

That's a Good reason to hunt them with semi autos, and not muzzleloaders.

I can't believe that no one has said this already...

Why did the guy not shoot when the boar was charging? He risked death by getting knocked down and then rammed again. WTF?

Seems like his dog was right behind it, so he probably didn't want to risk hitting the dog.

You're probably correct in your assessment....that being said, I'd have been pulling that trigger LOL.

He did not shoot because his dog was running right behind the boar. I use my dog for hunting waterfowl and upland and will not shoot at a wounded duck/goose that he is chasing down and I will not shoot at anything on the ground while we are upland hunting. Running birds can keep on running.

If you look at the first video, the dog is right behind the boar. Shoot high and you miss the boar and lose your dog. Some of us will get run down by a hog for our dog.

BigSteve57 that hunt from the heli would be awesome. I personally would have to crank CCR's Fortunate Son into my headset during the hunt.

 

[fabsroman]

This is an insane hog hunt from a heli. Might actually have to call it a hog shoot because there isn't much "hunting" involved. Some pretty good shooting though.

Yeah, the whole music accompaniment could make or break the trip. All the Heli tour operators play rock & classical music to match the flight.

I was thinking of "Don't Fear the Reaper" by Blue Oyster Cult. It's also my favorite drive-fast music.

But maybe that would backfire...too much adrenaline & excitement causes misses. Perhaps New Age types music would have a calming effect.

I'd have to experiment.
