I don't know would a sling shot piss off a sow more or make her run????

If I use the blunt ends I would shoot when he's a bit away,peper spray would be a good idea,maybe I'll get that for this year.

GRM, we are hunting both. Hogs are like vitamins, one a day. Allowed one or two javelinas. I took one two years ago and had it mounted. Turned out pretty cool. They are a stinkin' thing aren't they?? yikes. Could hardly hold your breath long enough to take pictures.
We hunted with Alberta Bush Adventures and they were awesome. They make it all about you and do everything within their powers to make your hunt a success.
We hunted a place called Rainbow Lake and everyone (but me) saw lots of bears. Most nights at least one of the hunters would come back to camp and tell about the bear that tried to get in the tree with them.
Lots of color phase bears in that area.
