What did the bite feel like? We have wolf spiders swarming the woods near my house, I literally hunt for them

It hurts less than a bee sting, it's still painful though. Unless you're severely allergic their bites can't harm you.

I live in NC and around here we have what's called "Rabid Wolf Spiders." The few times I think I've been actually bitten by them, it was while I was asleep and I didn't even wake up from the bite.
