That is taking care of business Pat. Congratulations on a great hog!

And that is a fine looking longbow!

Never get tiered of your hunts. Another good one. Keep them coming.
You can hop but you can't hide.
If it was not for rabbits I would never get a buck.

You're making me want to try a longbow again. Sure looks good on you.
I don't believe hunting stories will ever create an unwelcome audience here. Yours are pretty inspiring.

Pat - I love seeing your posts, especially since you're typically using a Hill style bow.  Keep 'em coming.

I gotta ask....What do you do with all the pig meat and how many arrows do you go through in a year?

There are several folks who have "standing orders" for a pig when I get one. With them it's usually just a phone call and they come running.
Of course we keep some.

Pigs are hard on arrows, lol !!!

The bow is the Northern Mist 68" about 61 or so at my draw.. I use the GT 5575's for the most part.

Scott, you are right. Every so often, despite your best efforts things don't turn out the way you would hope.. When that occurs I try to take all I can from the experience and hopefully never repeat any mistakes. Then I file it.
Like you I have had some physical set backs in the last decade that have been life changing and from that I have learned to make every effort not to dwell on things I can not change. I try to be a "glass is half full" person. I'm sure that you know that can be very difficult at times.
        Good hunting, all !!

I'd say that was a good 2 shot combo.

Keep knocking them down and sharing. Bad hits happen with ALL hunting tools.

Don't let my envy green complexion keep you from posting your pig hunts, I love em!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
