hey dave maybe I will have to get one of those fancy cases for my PCH from black widow and take a trip on my Yammy this spring.

Texas is a place I have never been either. I want to go to florida this summer to see my sister and my brother in law.

HAVE TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN....

The old order is passing. Swiftly receding into memory are the days of strong, earnest men who followed an atavistic yearning to pit their skills against wild animals.

This thread is a beast! Well-done, fellows! Yep, Biggie, that's pretty-much spot-on.

Here are a few more to add, taken with the Silvertip:

Ben, you Aussies got it great in the pig department!

Biggie - yep, when in Rome, you know...I got a story about (trying) to eat an Ozzie pig...I was going to shoot a little football sized pig we'd been seeing every day for Chef Brunner (the Short Guy) to cook up some 5-star meal with - he was gonna convert the Aussies on pig-eatin'.  We (RicMic and I) snuck in on the carcass of my buffalo (out in the sun for 3 or 4 days...yeah, you can imagine that) and into the middle of a big hog fight, I was waiting for the victor to return to his prize (a big, stinky, pile of buffalo) when the little rooter (US slang, not the Aussie term  ;)  ) and his momma came in.  Before I had a chance to get Chef Brunner his pig in a blanket the little fella bailed into the abdominal cavity of the defunct buffalo and started slurping it down.  Right then I figured the Aussies knew more about eating those pigs than I did.  The little guy got to enjoy his meal - and the last black boar in my pics above came in to chase off everybody else and got a STOS through the lungs.  I don't think the little pig ever even crawled out of the gut pile to see what all the commotion was about.

what is your broadhead for hogs?
my setup I plan to use is a 47#@28 56# hoots recurve  shooting Beaman MFX shafts with 175gr. woodsman elite broadheads, approx. arrow weight 500 gr., wich is a little heavier than my optimal 450 but they shoot very well.
any advice?
( I killed a doe with the woodsmans and they leave a heck of a blood trail, so I think I definitely want to use them on hogs.)is it beter to cut a lot and have less penetration, or to use a two blade to cut less but pass through?

I've killed most of mine with Magnus II and STOS 2-bladers. Although I have had limited success with a Woodsman, I maintain that the real big boys, with shields and caked-mud, are best served with a 2-blader. I'd happily use a 6-blader on smaller pigs.
