My buddy killed a 125# sow with a 60# compound shotting a Muzzy 100 on a carbon fiber arrow the last day of July. That Muzzy went through one shoulder, through the heart & we found it buried in the opposite shoulder when we skinned it. The blades were chewed up from hitting all that bone, but the broadhead held together & the penetration was great if you ask me. She piled up about 30 yards from where he shot her.

Nothing wrong with your setup. It will take a hog with no problem with a well placed shot. Stay clear of that front shoulder. No bow will penetrate very good there.
