Dad's bow strikes
« on: April 12, 2009, 08:16:00 PM »
Well, After a long last 6 weeks I finally got out a few evenings just to hunt pigs myself. It only seemed fitting that I'd use Dad's bow since his passing. The bow shoots just as sweet as if I'd been shooting it for years.

I shot this little guy by moonlight two nights ago. I love chsing hogs by moonlight!
The arrow was one Hormoan made Dad last year. They say "Pop's" on each arrow. They also fly like darts! This was a perfect heart shot.  :thumbsup:

 That is a very fitting way to honor your father. I'm sure he's smiling down on you.

That is simply awesome Curtis!  There is far more meaning to that hog than any other one you may kill.  You continue to make your Dad proud!  :thumbsup:
