Default RE: Booked a hog hunt

We booked the hunt with Dos Plumas hunting ranch. Everything we could find about them was positive and their price was pretty good too. What is the part of the hog that is called "the shield"? I assume that this is the shoulder but I am not sure. Are there any sites or pics that show where the hogs vitals are located? There would be nothing worse than hitting one of these things in the shoulder.

One other question, how do you guys care for the meat on hogs? We were thinking about taking a chest freezer with us in the back of my truck and bringing the meat home that way. I think that we will pay to have the hogs quartered but I am not any butchering expert.
