I hear ya. I had 3 of them in front of me once and the wind shifted. They immediately changed their behavior and bolted in different directions. A few minutes later I could hear them around my blind grunting and snorting. They had winded me and came to check me out. There was thick brush on both sides of my blind so I didn't see them but they were pretty close. They didn't stay very long after that.
