that's one of two hunts i went on last week, one wednesday, one saturday...
on wed only one pig was shot, while saturday there were 17 pigs shot, actually 19, but two of the wounded ones could not be found
we were roughly 10-11 hunters so we all got a bit of meat packed away...
one guy shot 5 pigs in one event. We do many types of hunts here in Romania, while hunting in groups we do what's called a "goana"...
that's where hunters line up within 50 yrds of ea other and wait for the "gonaci" to drive the game from the other end of the forest...towards us
of course, the larger older boar are smarter and they hide. The younger ones run and eventually get shot when they pass one of the hunters.
Name of the game is to sit still and not move.
On saturday, 5 boar walked past me within arms reach and never knew I was there. One of them got shot (the biggest one)
Other types of hunts are stalking and "dibuit" where we walk through the forest quietly. My favorite is stalking because it's the most comfy and safe, lol.
The biggest boar shot was around 165 kilos this time around, my all time heaviest was 275+ kilos.
my buddy shot one close to 320 kilos, but I never seen another like that one yet.
Keep in mind, these are REAL non-modified wild boar. These are not farm raised, these are not castrated to grow size, these are not mixed with domestic pigs, these are e.euro boar, just as mother nature made them.
As for the gun, i use a Benelli M4 semiauto. Gives me confidence knowing there's 7 slugs in there.
My bro uses a Benelli Argo 30-06 semiauto with a 10 shot mag. Comes in handy when 20 boar walk past you...
