Unlike the other hunters, Caiaphas was planning to do multiple strikes, and aim the second or third spear for a spot to the side, where it would hurt a leg to keep it from trying to run. Boars were notorious, even back home, for fighting to the death, especially an older male like this one was. He just had to leap up and back as the boar hit, and hopefully the spears would do the job, because if he switched to a different weapon, he would likely damage the head, which was to be the focal point of the ceremony.
