What does something like that weight?
Congratulations! Wish we had those critters in NYS, I realize that many would not like it however, understand they can be harmful...

Very nice boar, congratulations!  :clapper:

What broadhead were you using?

Just so happened to be shooting a Tusker Javelin on this hunt.  But I’m not married to any particular head. There’s lots of good ones out there. Hogs I typically  shoot a 2 blade

I’m not sure on the weight. I know I killed one a few years back that weighed 235# and this one just dwarfed him. Thank god for good friends cause there’s no way I could have got this One in my truck without em.

Thank you all for the kind words fellas! Really was a great day. Now time to go find another one! If you haven’t had the opportunity to go hog hunting I highly suggest it. Hogs are Taylor made for a bow and arrow. I spot and stalked this guy on some oak ridges. This time of year in my parts visibility is great and they stick out like a sore thumb. After all fall being perched in a tree stand it sure is a blast to take the fight to em. Happy Hunting all....

That's awesome! They are the toughest thing that I've ever hunted.

Anything over 250# is big.  They can be tough to bring down quickly.  Shoot placement is critical, but the bigger they are the harder they fall.
