enough bow

[ozzy]

gentlemen

i have a samick phantom recurve im drawing about 43#maybe a little bit more im using easton fall stalker allum arrows with 160gr broadheads total arrow weight is 478gr is this enough for pigs.... big pigs

see i have a mate who goes fishing on a property here and there are signs of a pig going to one of the dams i have been asked to rid this pig and im not sure of how big this pig is thats why im asking this question

if this is not enough bow i will use my 60#compound but i would prefer to use the curve

cheers mick

Mick,

While your setup would do the job in ideal circumstances that combo is a bit light for big pigs IMO.

thanks jeff

the compound it is........ would like the curve but would rather a good clean kill not a messy one if you know what i mean

cheers mick

like Jeff said,ideal circumstances,if you can get in real close,put a razor sharp broadhead into the boiler room,quartering away preferably you should be right.IMO

If it's a loner, chances are that it is bigger than a ~45# tradbow can handle without much luck present.
