There is no use focusing on aiming if you don't execute the shot well enough to hit what your are aiming at.
Re: Nice Hooks
Like Piggy said they look really thick, love the curled lip on the bottom pic.
If I could only hunt just one animal it would be boars.
Well done!

Re: Nice Hooks
Yes Jeff he lives in hunting heaven up there.
The hooks are pretty big for territory pigs they grow quick and fast up there but never seem to get the large hooks like over hear up at the basalt wall and the cape. Will be interesting how they measure as what they lack in size they shore are thick.
Im with you Tommo I think the old boar has a lot going for him as a feral target.
There hard to put down, you can get in close to them if your careful, they have to be respected as charging is quite common, especially for bow hunters as they have to get in close.
There number one on my list as well.

Re: Nice Hooks
Thanks Wayno. It sure is a great place to hunt but I'm not sure I would want to live there with their climatic conditions.

Re: Nice Hooks
hey wayno hows things, i wasnt sure whether ya got the pics we seen some crackers for that area and there was a couple sows in season which brought some bigger boys in.Im kickin myself for not taking one set which had an inch brocken off his left hook i reckon he still would of scored real good. kiersys set may go close to 30 when he decides to boil em out. I got some great footage of the hunt and some awesome croc footage too, show ya in sept when youre up cheers ron.
Re: Nice Hooks
Hey Ron good to hear from you. Yes cant wait till September will be good to catch up again.
Just about got everything sorted out for the trip will be different towing a camper trailer instead of a boat but hey I guess old age catches up with all of us.
Look forward to seeing you and good to see some big pigs hit the dirt.
