Cool story and pics Mike, thanks for sharing!!!
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

Whoooowheeee! What a hunt! Man does that get the blood to a boil. Good work and first time hog hunting. Sounds like the dogs were a big part of it. I like how you didn't use the Pbull to hold them. Slipping around is good, but the dogs seem to be better. And you're with the dogs. I'm going to be thinking about this for a while.

Great job on the coyote. I'm dying to get one with my bow. Sounds like you had a great hunt. Isn't it wild watching those dogs hunt? They sure love it as much as us. I really like those black mouth curs too but pitbulls will always hold my heart. Unfortunately pits won't baythe hogs they just charge right in afraid of nothing on earth. Thanks for posting.
