Here's another short video from my recent trip.

 

Here's a link to that initial thread: http://www.coueswhitetail.com/forums/topic/55562-knockin-out-the-bucket-list/

 

 

So basically, while waiting in the stand hoping for a big buck to show up I kept having these pigs come in and stick around which I figured made the deer uneasy. I didn't want to disturb everything by shooting the pigs but after watching some does come in and then run off because of them I figured it didn't matter! I had the camera sitting in my lap so it's not the best video but it is cool watching the lighted nocks fly!

Nice video. Your right about the flight of the lighted nocks. That was awesome!

I am amazed at how much movement that last pig made before the arrow hit it. If the pig doesn't drop like that I think that arrow might go right under it.

 

Sweet video, and I was happy to see you stop at 2. I watched a show recently where they were in Mexico and shot an entire herd of pigs with a .338 Lapua. It just doesn't seem like good conservation to me.

Cool Video!

Thanks guys, it wasn't very challenging but always fun flinging arrows at pigs!

 

That last pig did move a bunch prior to impact, kinda expected on a long shot at an alert critter. Doesn't always happen but makes us wonder if it's best NOT to stop an animal for a shot. I see it with elk a lot, but moving shots aren't any better.

 

I agree about stopping at 2, I coulda shot more and the ranch is overrun with pigs so it wouldn't have made a dent in the population, but I didn't fill my AZ pig tag so I figured I'd scratch that itch while I had the chance! Ha!

 

Thanks, Jim-
