Yes, it was a humane kill.  The bow has high-energy cams and the placement was perfect.  The arrow probably went through lung, heart and lung in that order.

The only way to make that hunt even more humane is through the use of firearm.

Okay, this shot was done with a very high energy Mathews and not a trad bow.  However, it really shows how a hunt should be with a combination of perfect placement, very sharp & wide diameter broadhead and kinetic energy.

Instead of starting a new thread, I will continue here.  3Rivers is selling tanged arrowheads now!  As you would expect, the price is way up there: http://search.3riversarchery.com/nav/ca … typoints/0

WB, the arrow should be much faster than if you drew to 32".

Do you have photos of the Kyudo arrows?

WB, how long are those Kyudo shafts that you used?  The limbs are almost or at parallel - nice looking bow 

Tiwaz, that's great news too!  34" carbon shafts should maximize our KTB's capability.  What will the spine of  these shafts be at 34" in length?  Remember a 60# KTB is around 85#+ @34" draw.

I think the Nomad G4 Bashkir in 80# or above will be able to effectively utilize those 315 grains Ashby or similar broadheads.

Warbeast, Canada and the US get plenty of game animals.  US get most of the wild hogs.  Isn't hunting wild hogs a very popular event in Germany?

jbl, I will contact Brandywine.  Do you find the hybrid footing method better than the traditional splicing method?
