Default RE: BOWHUNTING FOR WILD BOAR!!!!!

my first bow kill was a 122lb. sow, she ran about 65 yards....then i got another one, lost it in the water/cypress head....at least 200lbs...........i use only 75 grain and 50lbs., @ 20 yards it broke ribs and shattered it's back leg, 72lbs. should be plenty
i was really hestitant at first about shooting a hog, i heard they can run and run and run, the second one did(about 400 yards brfore i lost it), the first one didn't...shot placement i think had alot to do with that , no , it did have alot to do with it, take your time, make that shot count.....have fun on your hunt, get lots of pics....
