Video: Young Crossbow Hunter Bags Two Feral Hogs with One Shot

While hunting in Langley Ranch in Centerville, Texas, Marcus of Hunting with Marcus and Chris managed to land a lethal shot on two hogs. Two-for-one shots are always unique and exhilarating—akin to a feat of athletic prowess—but sportsmen and women are careful to make sure it is an ethical shot as well. According to the hunters, both hogs died shortly after the incident and were harvested.

“The first hog was hit through both lungs and ran approximately 20 yards before expiring,” Chris and Marcus commented. “The second hog as you observed was hit further back then any hunter would like, that includes us, but also received a fatal blow to the liver and ran approximately 50 yards before expiring. We always strive to make the best and most ethical shot as I’m sure all ethical hunters do, we will never master perfection but that won’t stop us from trying.”

That is a lot of bacon—and two less invasive hogs in Texas to boot!
