I have shot plenty sneaking around in the bush.
They are noisey buggers and fairly easy to sneak up on, I think they think the noise you make is one of their mates.
The wind direction is everything !!!!
Their sense of smell has to be seen to be believed, even with their noses deep in the ground they can smell you if the wind changes even for a split second.
They are hard to see in the bush being so close to the ground, unlike a Deer.
I can't be bothered chasing them with dogs either, call me soft if you like, but I don't like what the pigs do to the dogs & what the dogs do to the pigs.
Even with my biggest cannon I will get more meat off a pig compared to most of the ones I see at the Butchers.
They are quite hard to see in the light until you get used to looking for them, the black/white/ginger ones are very difficult to see from a distance especially if they are muddy.
