Just returned from a great time in Texas with 4 other United Bowhunters of Illinois members.
We had great weather and saw several hogs. Everyone got sightings and shots. We killed 5 all together.
Here is my Boar. 15 yard shot from the ground with a 45# Black Rhino longbow. Double lung, complete penetration through both 1"+ shields. Great blood trail. He ran about 90 yards. 220 grain Tuff Head on a Rick Stillman fir arrow. 650 grains total.

Nice pig chuck! Congrats
Great job. Hogs are fun.

Way to go Chuck!
Congrats!

Possum Head, we got 3 stalking, 1 from a ground blind, and 1 from a tree stand. With a recent rain, it was a little better for stalking. Lots of cactus in the hill country though, that made walking through the brush painfull.
congrats Chuck!
Nice work all the way around; shot, pig, and photograph! Glad you guys had a good time down here.
Best regards, Chase
What part of TX were you in or on who's ranch?
Great job Chuck. Were you with Rick Stillman?
Yes I was, Jon.
We hunted near Mason.
I wish I would have known I would have loved to hunt with you Chuck, Rick and probably Wayne as well.
Nice job Chuck!
Congratulations, Chuck !!!! Great shot !!
That hog is durn near as tall as you! Nice Job! That first picture is a great one too!
Excellent! Rick graciously offered me an invitation to come with you guys when we were at Kzoo. I REALLY wanted to go but I just couldn't make it work out. Now I'm wishing even more that I could have. Congrats again.
Making bacon.
Outstanding.
Finished boiling and scraping the boar's skull. Those tusks are wicked!
