Maybe two or three miles from me as the crow flies. I sometimes watch birds and do Christmas Bird Counts in the very woods along Leon Creek where that hog was likely bedding down.
I woulda thought it took access to crop fields to grow ‘em that big.
Hogs in the woods along the creek floodplains in this city are a given. They always ran from me back in that particular patch of woods outside the fence but then again some degree of illegal hunting by locals did and prob’ly still does occur.
Where it’s really a pain is where the hogs ain’t ever shot at and ain’t fearful enough of people. I always go into the woods carrying, mostly on account of hogs. People too, of course, but mostly hogs.
Mike. Did you ever get some of the Buffalo Boar Outdoorsman Hard Cast loads for your carry 9mm ?
They work well on hogs here at the Ranch.
Although I prefer the 45 acp version personally, but if a 9mm is all you have, I highly recommend them.
