They will do either or. Depends on the hogs and the situation. If you jump them, stick with them and see what happens. Sometimes, they will stop and check you out and other times they will run till they can't run anymore. If you can keep up with them until they get tired, they can make for easy targets.

We have jumped several but always in heavy cover. You hear the crashing and then nothing. My original assumption is that they didn't go far, but then upon scouting the areas, they were not around. What I think is happening is that they are bedded off the trails and the crashing is them getting on a trail and then they silently bug out. I have never seen this though as after being jumped, we never see them running off.

Additional, when I get on boars you hear one crash and run. When you get on sows/sounders, they do not always jump at the same time so you really don't want to take off after the first one, but there is no way to tell...really confusing. Add thier speed and it makes for a tough kill even when you do get on them.

Yep, it's better when you have 2-3 people waiting and then 1-2 people pushing through the weeds. When you team up on them, you're success rate increases tremendously. It's funny how everyone goes out there alone even though there are probably 5-6 of us out there all at the same time but in different areas. Keep letting everyone know when you go out there so that you can team up. I hope to get out there next weekend. We'll see. Good luck everyone.
