[JoeM]

This is great!!!  I'm actually sitting here rooting for these guys!!

Here's the video from Cade's shot.....
 

I could tell right away that it was high and barely under the skin.  In the video, you can see his arrow stick in the ground. I believe that's the only thing that kept it in the hog.

As the hog ran off, it spun around a few times trying to shed the arrow....then it took off with the rest of them till it hit the trees....

That's when you can hear all the squealing!!

 Since the arrow was half out both sides....when it hit the trees it got hung up between close trees and probably thought whatever had stung it seconds before had a hold of it!

Once it got itself off the trees it was gone!

Dang it!!!!

I told Cade to just relax, we'd check later on to see what we could find....but to stay still as it was early and they'd probably come back.....

Man, y'all have a BIG PIG PROBLEM!

Definitely a target rich environment.

[Terry Green]

And....if the shot would have been that far off on a 60# hog....the shot still would have been lethal....being off by 2.5 inches on a hog this size is a lot different that being that far off on an average size hog.

All in all.....his shot wasn't that bad...just that the target small.

[awbowman]

Yea, those "eating size" ones can't tote an arrow near as well as thier momma can.

Load another bullet Cade, and shoot another!

That will come to light before the hunt is over...

Youall put it to those hogs!

[Guru II]

I felt pretty bad about the shot, but my dad said that it would be fine and to relax and get another arrow ready...

He was almost positive that they would come back.


Again it wasn't a half an hour later when we see the same group of hogs, a little wearier, coming from behind my dad. I immediately looked for the one I had shot before... I saw it.

It was eating corn and looked fine, but I still felt bad about the arrow in it. I wanted another shot at it...

It wasn't meant to be with that hog. The hog came in and wheeled around and ran off, but there was another hog with an arrow in it that I was going to try and shoot, it was right under the feeder when my Dad told me to shoot it.

I got back to anchor again and let the arrow fly...

WHACK!!! I missed...But I had hit the one behind it and we both heard bone...
