Brain Shot Boar

[flungonin]

my first boar was a brain shot. He turned during arrow flight. Almost dead center of top of skull. My broadhead has the same amount protruding from the skull as yours and the skull is the same color, along with the stained tusk and teeth.

Great pics, very cool skull with the Woodsman BH still imbedded. Nice trophy. Congrats

My first hog I shot I hit him right behind the ear. He was a 130lb boar and he hit the ground squeeling and I was so shaken I missed the first follow up shot from the treestand. The next took out both lungs ate 20 yards. I still laugh at how much i was shaking on that second shot.

When I saw the picture of the skull I thought how cool is that.  My next thought was, look how nice and neat it just pushed in there.  I wonder if a 2-blade, single bevel would have shattered a hole as they are described to do.  With all the discussion out there, what do you think?

I like that !

Prewar70-
I normally shoot Grizzly single bevel 200 grainers. For this hunt I put a set of woodsman 200 gainers in the quiver. I can't help but wonder what the grizzly would have done. The woodsman broadhead is completely through one side of the skull and the tip embedded in the far side. The only thing left to do is break though the other side or completely shatter the skull case.

That said.... I think a skull shot pass through is a little much to ask, even for an extreme FOC single bevel grizzly.

I do know this. I've tuned this set up better than any other bow I've ever shot. There is zero movement of the arrow off the shelf. I think this made a big difference in the overall performance of the arrow on impact.

I love those broadheads!  

Cool looking trophy.    But i wouldn't recommend that shot personally

I tried that head shot to finish off a deer one time, and the dad burn deer jumped up and ran off with the arrow sticking out of his head.   :rolleyes:

The bad part was.... i was hunting right next to a golf course and that deer ran out and fell in the creek right next to the 7th hole green while two guys were putting.   :eek:    :eek:

I'm back there in the brush and i hear, "Wow! Look, It's a deer!.... and the other guy says "Ya man, and he's got an arrow sticking out of his head too"  

The bad thing was by the time i got down the embankment and across the creek, the deer had got up on his feet again and i had to put another arrow into it to put it down..... Very embarrassing.      :rolleyes:

Awesome pics. Wow what a shot!
And sausage... Heck. In my dreams!

[COOCH]

That is way cool!

Cool, dude.  Nice shot!  Even lucky shots can be nice ones.      

That sausage looks delicious.  A lot of guys here in FL just take the shoulders and hams and throw out the rest.  It makes my stomach turn seeing that kind of waste.  It's good to see you are treating the hog as the hunting gods intended, as sausage.

Peroxide may corrode the hell out of your broadhead.  I don't see how you are going to avoid coorosion no matter how you treat the skull, just be ready for a pretty gnarly chuck of metal stuck in there.  You may get lucky with a little corrosion making the whole thing look that much cooler.  You'll have to post pics of the finished product.
