[QUOTE="Double Naught Spy, post: 2323453, member: 55410"] It can certainly happen. I have shot and killed two hogs that previously had been shot "behind the ear" where the bullet passed just behind the head and just over the spine and the hogs survived long enough to have their wounds mostly healed. Hit too low on the neck and they will definitely run. "Neck shot" and "head shot" are similar generic descriptors. People usually mean to imply making CNS shots, but both the head and the neck are made up of a lot of non-CNS and non-vital structures. You can mess up a "head shot" or a "neck shot" and the hog run away. [/QUOTE]
