I'm convinced, Hoots. Sorry I didn't get to talk to you (up close and personal-like) at Sissipaha. I wanted to congratulate you on the Addiction bows success!

Great story, pics (except of John-boy sleeping    ;)  ), and great hunt, Don. Sorry John didn't get a chance to "ventilate" a hog too but I'm beginning to think he is like me and just doesn't like shootin' critters - ceptin' mebbe a tree rat now 'n agin. (   :mad:   )     :goldtooth:

Great looking bloodtrail Don. Did you notice the "S" channel at all? Where did you hit him? Sure looks like fun.

I used to hunt pigs around the Savanah River area (and up around Sumter) also, John (for 3 or 4 years or so). I had to stop (for personal reasons) just about the time I was switching to trad bows - so I never did get to try my hand with trad gear on them. There are a few stories about them on my web site and they are fun critters to hunt - but I don't remember any "whispering" -    :biglaugh:
