It's getting close isn't it. I'm at a wedding reception and all I can think about is rank, muddy pigs. It sure would be a treat to see you Sugar Ray Hammond.

That's some good shooting bud, a hair further forward and we wont be trailing them very far.

Ahhhhhh.... THE Bacon Strip!

Thanks for supporting the kids!

Keep the wind in your face!

Shoot straight, Shinken

Lol, when I did center punch the shoulder on that target, I buried my arrows in the plastic that holds the shoulder toghter. I lost 3 inserts doing that, sobi moved back. If buck fever doesn't rear it's ugly head, you betcha I will tuck it in, not worried about loosing an insert on a pig :D

In my non expert opinion, I think you still might get some lung with that placement. I've been keeping to my year round routine of 10 to 20 shots a day in my basement and Im feeling good. Been pretty busy to get in much stumping or 3d but Im ready.

I was going to buy a 3d hog target but I figured that if I know where the placement is on a hog ( I studied Terry's shot placement thread) that I will be good to go. It's way different to where I am used to shooting a whitetail though. I shoot maybey 20/30 a day just to keep the ol computer still working right

I just bought a new camera and will be bringing it along. I've settled on "Shakira", my 47# Griffin as my hog slayer. I have 3 different arrow combos that are flying like bullets so that is a yet unresolved matter. Just have to treat my clothes with permanone and Im good to go. Dont forget your headlamps, it gets dark early under those ancient trees.

Do

frassettor · July 23, 2012, 05:36:00 PM

I got some of the permanone and will treat mine just before I go. I will be using my 61# widow, with a 750 grain CX 350 tipped with a KME sharpened Zwickey Delta

You guys are going to have a blast!

Lots of fun and maybe a little luck!

Ray Hammond · July 23, 2012, 08:56:00 PM

I'll plan on seeing you then! I'll bring squirrel bait too!

tippit · July 24, 2012, 08:10:00 AM

Dang, this sounds like a social meetin' on the Savannah! I wish I was at the farm in Aiken to join in...at least for Ray's dinner

Good Luck guys...tippit

Izzy · July 24, 2012, 08:55:00 AM
