First hunt of the season.

Was looking for deer, but did not see one.  Did come across some hogs.  These two are just about the best size for eating.

Thanks.  I built this bow three years ago
  Its a bamboo backed ipe, osage, ipe quad lam.  I made the quiver from a buck i shot two years ago.

They are tasty and these two guys are going to be slow smoked on our next big campout.  I live in texas and my land has lots of hogs which makes a great default prize when deer hunting, but i sure would have liked to have put a nice fat doe in the freezer.

Nice.  I like the piggies, but haven't shot one with a bow in a long time.  Good shooting and nice bow.

Very nice Kent. You need to check out the "Quit Smoking" thread that JW started in the Campfire section

Oh baby!  When I look at those two sweeties I just wanna start smoking! 

If you get an extra one, could you freeze it whole and ship it to me????  That's the size I'd like to try smoking whole!
