Guess when you put a decent tool in the hands of a pro and he will produce the required result! Way to go Pat!!

Well Pat, like I said last night - nice pig! How long did you have that bow, like 2 days? Nice pic, nice shot, nice hog.

Still waiting to hear the skinny on that bow of yours. Sure looks nice ... next to a slain critter.

I feel very fortunate to have received one of the new Sparrowhawks from Vince at Mohawk longbows..
The bow came on Monday and I was able to shoot it a bit Monday evening. I was able to get together with it quite easily it seemed. It is 66" and 45 @ 28. I draw to nearly 30" so I'm right at 50 I'd guess.

I was able to get to the woods on Tuesday evening. I went to a place that I'd been saving for a special occasion. There were some pigs around but the wind seemed to betray me. I stayed put in my stand hoping that as dusk came on things would settle down. Right at dark this little squealer came in and got broadside.. He only went 30 or 40 yards after the arrow hit. I expect he was under 15 yards, sure is nice when they're close, makes even a duffer look good !
