First with my own bow.....(Bow pics, as requested!)
« on: January 26, 2011, 05:43:00 PM »
I just got back from four AWESOME days down in Okeechobee, Florida with Chris Horsman (Limey Chris) & his 3 wonderful hog dogs.

The dogs bayed this nice fat sow & I managed to get an arrow into her pretty quickly. She didn't take a step after the arrow took out both lungs & her heart. 20 seconds, start to finish. It doesn't get any better than that!

This is my first kill with 'Knight Breed' my 'boo backed Ipe bow that I built at last year's Tennessee Classic.

   

   

Gotta have one obligatory ' 800lb California Hog' pic   :D  .....

I'll be chasing hogs near Sebring in a couple weeks.
Someday I'm going to get together with Chris.
Please post some pics of that bow, sure looks nice from what I can see. Really like the strung profile.

A finer guest you couldn`t ask for. He brought dinner.
Unfortunately the pigs where not in the abundance we have become used to on the Kissimmee river, but we got one.
A fine weekend in Gods country with new friends. Life is good.
