Hah! And he told me he wasn't good enough yet with his longbow to shoot a hog with it    :rolleyes:   I told him he could do it. Tell him Congrat's for me.

Kevin,
Irv's too modest, I swear he has ice water in his veins. He's a great shot,even on game.
This should really boost his confidence.
He and I were hunting the same spot the day before and he passed on several iffy shots at dark. It paid off for him.

:clapper:    And by the red on that arrow looks like it was a pass through or darn near close!

great shot. I just posted on Powwow about how this gentleman didnt think a recurve had enough energy to put a quick clean kill on a hog....some people...

For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.
