Title: Superbowl Hog 2-4-07
Post by: Glenn29 on February 04, 2007, 05:49:00 PM
Just finished killing this small sow I took this afternoon. Was hunting a local Florida WMA that allows hogs to be taken during small game season.

She weighed 35lbs but will eat just fine...plus she is my first hog with a stick bow.

Equipment used was a Bear Kodiak Magnum 55@28" 2018 XX75 with a 150 Woodsman head.

Good shooting! The smaller ones are a real challenge-the vitals are tiny.

Big Ron it is a pretty sweet bow. At 52" long it is a good bow for the stand or for stalking as in this case.

It is a Gainesville era Bear and sure will make an arrow fly. I bought it from a fellow Tradganger just  during December.

I'm going back to the area this weekend to see if I can get a bigger one. I saw some turds in there the size of my leg and tree rubs that were to my chest.  :eek:  

Might have to bring more arrows though...

Glenn, I BBQ'd one a like that for a buddy a couple years ago. Whole hog on the grill, indirect heat,good oak fire and let it smoke slow all day. Then have yourself a good pig pickin.
