Yeah they do. My brother hunts them on the big island of Hawaii and 500+ #’s is pretty routine. A good hunting dog is essential to keeping yourself in one piece though. He’s never been able to persuade me to go with him. I’m not getting any faster with age, so it’s likely I never will. Up close, the things are not exactly a treat for the nose either, and the meat is really gamey on the bigger ones.

An 11 year old and .50 cal pistol somehow this fact makes the rest of the story suspicious.

I shot one last year and it’s like shooting a cannon. I can’t imagine this kid getting off multiple shots unless this hog was half dead to start.

It looks like its one-half bear, one-half pig and one-half Algore.

I used to go walkin in the woods across from work while on break, till I saw evidence of wild hawgs. I aint walkin there no more without a firearm.

No matter what the exact size. If you saw that thing in the woods you would be scared you know what. That thing is huge. And wild hogs will kill you easily.

Don’t forget the cracklings! (otherwise known as pork rinds)

So they say. But I find it hard to imagine tuckin into a scrumptious piece of cracklin bread made with broken up pork rinds.

I will have to admit that Cracklin Bread is a new one on me. I had to look it up.

Cornbread with cracklins in it does sound “Different”.

No. I shot .44 mag at ages younger than that.

Besides, when you are shooting at something this big, recoil is irrelevant. Adrenaline is the best compensator!
