Hi Jesse
A 55# bow will have enough punch to take even large pigs with the right arrow and the the right arrow placement.
cheers

I totally agree Matt...
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is no where as important as being able to place it in the correct spot....!
Re: what poundage?
IMO the right shot, matched with the right arrows anything above 45 is plenty for nearly all game in australia, just make sure your arrows are matched to the bow....save the heartbreaking sight of the arrow falling out of the air 5 meters in front of a trophy billy 
A smile is priceless, yet can make so much difference
