Good BH for hogs, help me on my setup....
H Rhodes:
I agree with Mullet on them being the ultimate animal to stalk - at least they are in these parts. There is more than a hint of danger when they are all around you in a palmetto flat or a canebrake. The sows with babies close by are no joking matter either.
mullet:
Howard; Isn't it fun when those teeth start poppin'? ;D
H Rhodes:
Oh heck yeah! A mama hog all bristled up when you are too close to her babies is a sight you won't forget. I have had them charge my canoe when I drifted too close to some of those little striped piglets. The boars don't scare me near as much.
PeteC:
If your getting pass-throughs with that set up,then you have it down. Hogs are tough,but if you get that arrow through both lungs,with a razor sharp head,they don't seem to go any farther than deer to me. Most of my hogs that I recover ,go less than 50 yards. I lose one every now and then,but I find more than I lose.I hunt with tradepoints that are at least 1 1/4" wide,really sharp,over 600 gr.arrow,from 50-55 # sticks. JMHO God Bless
mullet:
I agree, Pete. The only problem I've had in Florida and Georgia is 50 yards through a swamp or real thick bush and thorns or your hands and knees is a long way when you finally get there. :)
