[QUOTE="Buckys, post: 2242883, member: 107750"] I generally agree that anything you use for deer will work with hogs. However, I would say that for shooting an old boar, I would be careful with shot placement and/or I might want to use a mono bullet instead of a cup and core like corelokt, powerpoint, etc. See "Truth #4" in the link below ... if you learn how to place a shot for archery hunting, any bullet will be fine. But if you use a soft tip non-bonded bullet that expands quickly and hit that big patch of cartlidge around the shoulder, you might not get the penetration you hope for: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.realtree.com/all/articles/boarsgot-what-it-takes[/URL] [/QUOTE]
