Title: You only have one first...
Post by: Texas Tinman on July 23, 2008, 01:36:00 AM
...bowhunt. I took my nephew, Liam(6), with me to the stand for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Here are a few pics from Liam's first hog hunt.

Enough practice...let's go hunting.

This was also my BIL/Trey's first hog hunt and first animal with a bow, a '70s Wing recurve that I gave him for Christmas last year. The Hog God's smiled on our trip: two arrows, two little piggies. Perfect size for the smoker...

It was a very good weekend.

Man, that's what family is all about!  My 6 y/o is a little small for his age I'm waiting on another year.  What weight is Liam's bow?

Not sure but it was one of the heavier Red Oak bows from it's batch. I use the instructions from Elk Ninja's build-along thread on here to build them.
