    Sure patrick go at it. Native americans used to use 15# longbows to kill buffalo from horseback. But I bet they had some razor sharp stone tips on there arrows! I have seen a hunter on tv shoot a razorback boar with a airgun, size .22. I dont care what you guys think of me. The data is simple and the doc has proven that you do not need a heavy bow weight to bring down big game! Mabye I should direct you guys to his thread about hunting buffalo with a 40 pound bow. I refuse to belive that a hog is tougher than a buffalo. Like I said before the minimum draw weight for hunting BEAR in my state is 30 pounds. So if you are saying that 40#’s for hunting hogs is insufficient, then you my freind are the one that looks as though they havent got a clue!
