Hi, Gents:
I've been wondering where the best place to put a bullet in a European Wild Boars since they started showing up in Saskatchewan.

Are they all gut behind the shoulder, or will a shot just behind the shoulder get the lungs or heart? What about a head shot from the side? It looks like their eyes are so high on the head that a shot between the ear and eye might just go through the top of the skull and miss the brain. I expect they'll burrow into round bale stacks in the winter. A hunter could set up at the end of the row and wait until a boar sticks it's head out for a look-see. Anyhow I expect it won't be like whitetail hunting.
Bye
Jack
