Hunting from a helicopter with a bow makes about as much sense as:
* People who have luxury automobiles parked at their mobile homes
* Christmas goods for sale after Halloween
* Rollerskating up hill

Those who cannot do... hate.... It doesn't seem very effective unless injuring an animal is the goal. I rather just kill them quick.

Dude , You even said yourself in the video that you don’t like wounding animals and yet you do TWICE and that’s not even counting the B roll footage ...

There is nothing more that I love than a helicopter as a tool to control hogs, but it seems like a waste to go about it with a stick and string. To each their own.

I've seen some stupid chit before, but this takes the cake. Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should.
Kel-Tec RFB + Griffin Sportsman Ultra Light 300 + Pulsar Apex XQ-50 M&P-10 + AAC Cyclone Remy 700 + Leupold VX3 3.5x10x50 CDS

Someone should have been riding shotgun to finish off the hogs. No guarantee they died just because they had a couple of arrows in them. Low draw weight, velocity diminished by several factors, hits to the thickest parts of the pork.
No guarantee.
I have seen hogs with bullet wounds and other injuries. Found one with part of a wooden arrow and practice tip in it below the skin.

If you can shoot a hog from a helicopter with a bow that is a heck of a shot. I watched pigman do it on his show. I thought it was cool!!
Come on guys! Give the poor guy a break for once.
GO TRUMP!

Someone has been watching too much relentless pursuit featuring Tim Wells LOL. I was thinking he should do a bow hunt at night from a helicopter with the new x-sight pro.

Give you a for hitting with bow from air. I am why. Like was said earlier you can do it, but why. Waisted time, fuel, and opertunities on hogs. PETA people could use this as advertisement for cruelty. Just my
