Wild boar hunting advice
Mechslasher:
my bows are between 55-60#'s. you probably won't have a shot at a stationary target. hogs move around alot and rarely stay still for more than a few seconds. especailly if there is a crowd of them in one area. the 50-75 pounders usually bounce around like billard balls after a hard break, so keep this in mind. the first hog i killed was broadside at about 18 yards when i released the arrow. by the time the arrow hit, he was facing me. the arrow entered his throat and went through his chest. eddie had a butt puckering moment when the hog took off running. ;D

I have some advantages on this hunt. The 2 guys who are going with me, have hunted there 3 or 4 times. So, they know the area. Also, one of them will be hunting with a T/C .35mag pistol the other will be hunting with a Marlin .45-70. They can back me up while I'm hanging from a tree limb with an angry pig nipping at my heels. haha

Between 50-60 # @26". Self-arrows range from 550 -700 grains with razor sharp trades. God Bless

I'm shooting between 55-65. Chris' pig did give me a pucker moment, Myself and the camera man had snuck in about ten yards when Chris shot. It took off straight at me and I richoceted an arrow off it's forehead, it stopped and fell over dead from Chris' heart shot. ;D
