First Trad Javelina
« on: January 14, 2013, 01:52:00 PM »
Built a couple of TD bows for my sons for Christmas and my oldest put his to use 5 days later.
After 4 days and about 25 miles of hard hiking and glassing he made a great shot on this pig. We checked afterward and it was 30 yards on about a 30 degree downhill. I was standing below and behind him about 30 yards on the opposite side of the hill as the pigs. I watched him take the shot and heard the pig grunt, it was awesome!

Well done to both of you.

The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

You must be proud of your son and the bow.  Javies are so stinkin' (literally) cool.  I got my first one last year.  They are made to bowhunt.
