I haven't decided what bow to bring, mostly because I've never hunted hogs.
Would a shorter bow be better for the terrain we'll be hunting (I own 58", 60" and 64" bows)?

David , last year my son hunted with a 66" Foley longbow at Ray's and said he had some difficulty getting thru the really thick stuff. I know when Doug and I were down there in March we got into the briars and our 58" bows were'nt a problem.
It can get really thick in there but that seemed to be were the hogs were. Don't forget to pack some clippers to cut your way out!

wish this was early spring,,, I'd go again in a heart beat! but the heat this time of year in SC will make me pass out and fall onto a fire ant hill and well I don't think I'll make it back to Boston in time.
goodluck to all of you.

The 66" bow was a bit much. I bought an ambush and can't wait to get down there with it.

I'll be the odd man out. I'll have a 64" and a 68", and probably hunt with the 68"
I'm too wide to get through the thick stuff easily anyway....

After "slipping" through the swamp in June you'll be less wide.

Thanks! I actually lived in Fayetteville for three years myself (working for Peter's old boss at that). I think the campfire stories will come easy to this group

This is my third time I've been here at the behest of Uncle Sam, and it has become my home away from home (born and raised in Michigan).

Guys, unfortunately some things have come up which will prevent me from making it down for the hunt.
So there is still a spot available for this hunt!
If you have been thinking about getting down to Ray's, and want to go with some great folks, here is a chance.
God Bless
