That's a 56 inch hybrid longbow that's about 62# at my draw, an Arrow Dynamics full length carbon shaft with a 160 grizzly, 100 gr steel adapter.

I shot him twice- caught about 15 hogs in a 7 or 8 month old clearcut- rooting around...just before dark.

He was pestering all the other hogs, so I had to do him in.

First shot was at what I saw as a 'profiled' hog- but in fact he had turned his head and front of his body toward me as I was drawing- arrow entered near-side of neck, traveled through and exited the opposite side elbow on the front, breaking the leg and passing through.

He ran toward me ( not at me) as I loaded up another arrow- at about 10 steps he did a 90 to his left and started motivating as fast as three legs would carry him, and I loosed a second arrow that traveled through both sets of ribs angling from rear ribs to front ribs- which created a pneumothorax and collapsed his lungs.

Hog went about 50 yards and was DRT

I've still got two available slots for any future date at the special price of $495.00 for a hog hunt- that's 80 bucks off the regular $575.00

And we have many openings left for 2012. If you want to get in a last minute hunt this fall, the next four weeks will be THE BOMB as the oaks are beginning to drop, the persimmons are close, and crabapples are almost ready!!!!

Call me at 678.300.2883 to set something up!
