I've been seeing hogs about an hour before dark while getting ready to night hunt. I decided to bring my longbow along and try to get within range. The wheat is still fairly tall making my approach easier than normal. I got somewhere around 20 yards to a group of young hogs - and let the spruce arrow fly!! Nailed the first little boar right behind the shoulder, the little sow stopped right where I shot the boar so I let the air out of her tires both piled up about 8 yards apart. These were my first longbow kills, not too bad and an absolute great hunt.. Fun times!

Well done!

To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.
