Alright guys here it is..
Ive been waiting on my Apex Predator longbow and I finally picked up my bow last night at 7 o clock here in Brunswick, ga. Awesome to say the least. I couldnt help myself last night when I got home and I set up some lights in the backyard and started shootin at my hog target. I have been practicing with my bro's ol bear grizzly in the mean time while I waited on my Apex. and was getting really good with it out to about 25 yds. So anyway..it didnt take long to get accustomed to shooting this bow. Alot quieter and smoother than what I had been shooting.
So..got up this morning loaded my huntin gear in the truck and went to work in Savannah with my huntin arrows and magnus broadheads and my bow and was set on goin on my first traditonal hunt if i got off work early enough. I shot a couple times at lunch and planned on going this evening after work. By the time I got to the woods I was hitting well out to 20 yards. So I hunted for about an hour this evening with no luck and about 15 minutes before dark I spotted two small 40 lbers. I cut the distance and got right in the middle of about 6 40 lbers and a good sized sow. I had a small one at 8 yards for a couple minutes but it never gave me a clean shot just a head on. It eventually looked up and noticed something out of the ordinary and bolted..along with all the other small ones. That left this big sow at twenty yards and it was do or die time..I focused on her and drew and without any kind of thought let my arrow fly as she slightly quarters towards me and I smacked her through the shoulder blade.
All I can remember is I drew and shot and it just felt right like so many guys on here say about the shots they take. At the shot she squealed and I knew I drilled her. I saw about half the arrow sticking out my side as she took off into the palmettos. It busted through the close shoulder blade right through the thick bone and exited out the other shoulder just above the elbow. She never stood a chance. I found her piled up 50 yards in the palmettos. Im officially hooked on longbow hunting! This brings a whole new dimension to hog hunting too..Ive killed hogs before but have never been crazy about hunting hogs but this was awesome. Im still kind of in shock guys to be honest. Here's the pics of the sow and my bow and also the entry hole through the shoulder. Those magnus heads are bad news! Thanks again Marty..can ya tell i love the
bow??
