Title: Bow kill
Post by: Black Streak on August 01, 2019, 08:09:25 pm
Set at my bow stand yesterday evening after work.     This big ol toothy boar came in for a brief visit but left a little quicker and louder than he came.       He made a half circle and laid down and died.    Probably went 80 yards but really only died about 60 yards from me.  I was listening to him and could tell he had stopped and was hold up and gonna make his peace just a few yards from me.    Took him about 20 minutes to expire.  I didn't hit him where I was wanting but it all worked at.    I got down after about 10 minutes if not hearing him anymore and proceeded through the briars in search of him with a pistol.  Fortunately when I come up on him in the fading light he had already breathed his last and there was no further excitement.     Guessing he weighed well into the upper 200s.         Fun hunt, I don't shoot them with bows much anymore but used to be my preferred way of hunting them before I started hunting and catching them with RCDs (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190802/8224b26074983ca2c675d17256a70086.jpg)
