Post by: tarponnut on February 21, 2010, 08:53:00 PM

I took a nice meat hog near Lake Okeechobee this morning. Six yard shot, hog ran 40 yards and piled up in sight(and on video).

I was using Gold Tip traditional arrows 35/55,
3 gpi weight tubes, 100 grain brass inserts,
and a Magnus II 2 blade broadhead.
Total weight 590 grains.
After the hit the arrow was sticking out 18" or so and fell out within 5 yards.
My buddy Josh Zwerner arrowed a bigger one the afternoon before with his Treadway. He was using 2016 Easton arrows and a 125 Grain snuffer.
Thanks guys.

Was the pig taken over on Corbett State Wildlife Management Area?

Title: Re: Longbow Sow/more PICS
Post by: tarponnut on February 22, 2010, 05:49:00 PM

No,it was on a private lease near Clewiston.
Corbett has a lot of hogs, though.

Nice to live near hog hunting.  Do you get to hunt year round?

Title: Re: Longbow Sow/more PICS
Post by: tarponnut on February 23, 2010, 08:37:00 PM

Hogs,rabbits,and raccoons, are open year-round on private land in Florida, getting access can sometimes be tough, though.
