Congratulations!  Hogs are on my list to hunt someday.

If you like your Wesley Special now, put tip overlays on and use a Fast Flight string and it gets even better!  Faster, quieter and more durable.

Way to go Ben! If that bow shoots that good by itself, looks like you found a keeper! Wish mine did that. Congrats!!  :thumbsup:

Awesome Ben!  Congrats!

I've had bows that did that kind of thing too, some even reload themselves without me knowing about it!  ;)

Thanks for sharing your hunt with us!

Who says you can't successfully stalk and kill with a 70 inch long bow? Way to go. Nice hog.  :thumbsup:

Great shootin'...neat that you are starting learning to make your own equipment, I think it brings a greater sense of accomplishment.
