We had about six walk past at 15 yards.We waited for the last two and they were walking straight at us. They stopped at 5yds and looked at us.When they turned and ran I took a shot. My arrow flew inches over the pig.We started to stalk closer and after about 5 steps Justin drew his 45# chiron archery long bow and let an arrow fly 23yds to find the heart of his first 40lb hog.A perfect shot!http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l544/dwilber88/Mobile%20Uploads/0818110824.jpg

Thanks everyone.This was only his second time hog hunting and it was about my eighth time.If you ever want to be a successful hunter just bring a kid along.He bagged his first hog before I did. There is always next time and I hope he is there to see me get my first  :)
