Ben,

I've GOT TO COME TO THE LAND DOWN UNDER, where women glow and men plunder!!!!

Those hogs are too much.

Yep, Ray, the pig hunting can be phenomenal at times, in certain places. Cape York is probably the best place, and there are two bowhunting guides who operate there (Mick Baker, who Andy is going to work for, and Pat Macnamara). I'd offer to take you, but our places run cold or warm, and we can never tell if we're going to see any or not. In between wins, there're a lot of dry spells. Mick and Pat have access to the best country for pigs.

I've already posted a photo of this pig, but here's the sequence that my mate, Tony, caught on film:

The boar coming toward us through the grass, groggy and hung-over from a big night out, I reckon...
 

The shot (we reckon the arrow must've just connected in this photo, but can't make it out for the grass [the pig is on the upper left of the photo, just a dark blur])...
 

The hit...
 

The grin...

Superb pigs, Cory, and great to see a PSR in action! I really enjoyed your pig-hunting story in "The Best of TBM" called "When the Marsh Calls".

TTT for any more piggy pictures to be added to this cool thread.

Paul, out of curiosity, what are the specs for your BWs, and what are the specs for your arrows?

Again, well-done on a top boar!

Thanks Ben - I miss those days hunting hogs in saltwater habitats - and my daughter is grown up now. In fact that gator page or two back came from about 30 miles from where we first discovered hog tracks on a sandy beach many years ago.

More pics coming
