I just started hunting hogs last fall and I love it. I've only been 3 times, but I've scored each time, seeing more hogs each hunt. This last weekend, I was hoping for a late season buck, but all I saw were does, and turkeys; anyway I spotted a 250 pounder plus sow at approximately 1/4 mile away on a dirt road. I watched her for 20 minutes as she slowly walked my way. I had already ranged a dead log at a 100 yds as a reference point, and I was waiting for her to pass that log before taking her. When she was still 15 yds from that point, she turned broadside to me, giving me a perfect 115 yard shot. I took her with one shot just behind and below her left ear with my 30-06. Tried draging her back to my blind, but she was too heavy, so I left her in the road and waited for my outfitter to show up to help me load her. She weighed out at 291 pounds.
