Dillow’s Hog  – 11/19/11

Mark Dillow & Kevin Wall's Hog Hunt

  
 
Report (by Mark Dillow)
Kevin and I were hunting our lease, when at right about 6:30 AM I heard Kevin shoot 3 times with his .44. Probably 30 seconds later two pigs ran into my feeder and started eating, but didn’t seem spooky at all. I drew the bow, but it was still dark enough that it was hard to make out anything more than a black blob. And of course they don’t stand still very long. So I waited maybe a minute to get the broadside I wanted on the larger of the 2 pigs and let fly. It was still so dark I couldn’t see the arrow’s flight, so I wasn’t sure how well I had hit her. I could hear the arrow hit home, but wasn’t for sure on the placement.
 
 I wasn’t about to go tromping after her without some big caliber backup, so I waited in the stand until 9:30 in hopes that a buck would come in  (never saw any deer though…I think it was too windy (15-20 mph) and that takes away their 2 main defenses, scent detection and hearing, so I think they just were hunkered down).

When I did start tracking, it was obvious I hat hit her hard – the blood trail was massive. She ran maybe 50 yards from where I hit her. Ronnie told me about the Rage broadheads, and I am sold on their performance.

“Does the LORD delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the LORD? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams. — 1 Samuel 15:22 (NIV)
