Boar with a Bear

SAM E. STEPHENS · July 07, 2011, 04:23:00 AM

Been after this guy for the last 3 weeks out at my in-laws place.Got 200 or so pics of him on a trail cam and I know where he hides at , could just never get on him.No way to kill him on a feeder he would make big loops around any place he was going to eat at and wind you every time.Set up on his trails many times only to get busted I was thinking he was not ever going to meet one of my arrows.He is no giant but he was one of the smartest pigs I have ever ran across , the temp was about 104 today and a water hole with just the right wind was where he met his maker.Got him with one of my Bear TakeDown recurves with RoseOaks on it and a GT 55/75 and a Phantom.I sure love stuff you have to work hard for it just makes it that much better.,,,,,Sam,,,,

Way to go Sam....matching wits with an "experienced" hog and beating him at his own game gets a big

Nice looking pig don't see many that colour round this way, he looks almost ghostly

Well done on finally nailing him.
