Default RE: first bowhunt for boar

I took my first hog this past weekend in Tennessee using fixed blade 100 gr. NAP Razorback broad heads. I can see where mechanical heads would be really out of place on a hog hunt. I learned several valuable lessons this weekend, foremost being….if you are hunting with dogs, you need to be in reasonably good shape (I am still sore) but it was fun. I found there is a big difference between setting in a tree stand vs. chasing dogs thru the hills all day.

Shot placement is another big thing. I didn’t realize their vitals are so low on the body so like Amanita said, aim for the heart.

Btw….Amanita thanks for your advice about broad heads a few weeks ago. I really appreciated your help.
