cut the catch  dog loose and wait for it there he is he is caught is some one was to shoot my dog they would have to go to the er with the gun stuck well we all no were  and my foot next to it!!!!!!!
 

I totally agree with you about shooting a hog that is caught.  But we are talking about shooting bayed hogs so there is no reason to stick any feet anywhere or to make those comments.  Anyone who shoots hogs that thier dogs bay would not shoot a hog that has been caught.  Why would you.  The hog is caught...just leg it and tie it.  If my dogs catch a hog and I get my hands on it, its gonna be tied until I decide to do something else with it.....no need to waste bullets.

As far as thick goes, I have said it before and will say it again there are thick woods everywhere not just Florida, or South Texas or East Texas.  Allot of times its thick and you have to get close for a shot most of my shots are from 15-40 feet away, sometimes just a few feet.  Thick woods won't keep a hog from getting shot if the dogs will keep it bayed.
