Penetration test for pigs

  Here's three, little points I've mounted on for shafts. Like I said in another thread, that after reading that informative article Billy wrote I wanted to try some on hogs. These points are mounted on Hard Maple shafts, I wanted weight, as much as I could get with these tiney points. They came out, after sanding around 95 grns. Mounted in the cane arrow the total was 550grn.

  I shot a 100 grn field point on this arrow to see how it would fly and it was straight and fast out of my 60# Osage. I will be going for shots like I had with my pistol the last time I went to that ranch. They were about 8 to 10 feet.

  If I shoot and recover one I'll try my hand at being a writer. Oh, almost forgot, that , Fine, cane arrow was made by Steve Parker (hillbilly).

I like that set up Eddie.  Maybe the boo shaft will come out and leave the forshaft in.  That will leave the hole open to bleed while the point and forshaft stay in to cause more damage.   :) Justin

mullet:
 That's what it is supposed to do Justin. The Boar hog Chris Cade killed was shot with the same set up. The foreshaft shot out of the socket and cut the heart in half. But it was a Grizzly point I think. I've used foreshafts like this before with field points on targets. When the cane comes into contact with the target the foreshaft is like somebody going through the windshield.
