Here's mine! Warthog taken with my 45# Arvin Weaver selfbow. The PH on this hunt was watching me practicing with this bow and told me he did not think that this bow would have enough penetration to kill a warthog. The warthog had an entry and exit hole with a double lung shot and went about 80yds!

Here's one from this morning.  Centaur 44@28, CE Heritage 150 with an STOS 160 mounted on a 100 grain adapter.  Total arrow weight is 600 grains.  Complete pass thru and she only went about 60 yards or so, shot was 22 yards broadside.

My first bow kill was a button buck in 1969 with a 50# at 28" Shakespeare Necheda (still have it).  The only picture I have is a faded Polaroid.


I shot this one 3 years ago with a bow that my father made for me some 35+ years ago.  It is 44# at my 27" draw.  2016 arrows with 125gr 2-blade Stinger and 70gr weights



Shot this one last year with my RER 44# at 27".  2016 arrows with 2-blade Stinger



Shot this one this year with my 44# at 27" Leon Stewart Slammer and CE 150 with 2-blade Stinger and 50gr insert
