Rare Florida "Javelina"(actually a wild hog)
« on: March 21, 2010, 03:20:00 PM »
I arrowed a rare "Florida Javelina" sized boar near Clewiston yesterday. This little guy came in with 9 of his friends and hung around a little too long.Ran 80 yards and piled up(on video again)
Magnus II head, GT Trad arrow, Kohannah Fury Elite longbow 48#. Many thanks to Terry VanArkel
for getting my arrows flying right just prior to the afternoon hunt!

:thumbsup:  It's a good thing we do not have hog hunting in MT or I would NEVER get any work done.  Thanks for sharing.

Only one in the group ran off after the shot(besides the one I shot). I have fifteen minutes of video of them scarfing up the corn and eventually a cow with a calf ran them off.
I also got good video of a doe and spotted fawn  the day before.The coyotes really had the bigger hogs wired.We heard them howling both nights.
