Bows are like shoes. You have your brand followers, but I would highly suggest the following. Figure out your draw length and draw weights. Then shoot several different bows that can accommodate these requirements. Choose the one that has the weight and length for your style of hunting and feels best to you.

Definitely agree with HogStalker. I would add that you should find an archery shop that you like and that will help set you up. If you have never bow hunted before or don’t have someone experienced walking you through the different components of a bow and getting you set up correctly, you’re going to have a tough learning curve and bad experience. Most archery shops are more than willing to help you out, because if you get set up right, you will be a continued customer and they totally want you to get “into” the sport. I’d recommend finding a time when the shop isn’t busy, let them know your experience level and what you are looking for, and see if they can set you up. Good luck!

Yup, don't listen to the fanboys who say "Bow Brand X is the best bow ever" because those folks are stupid.
There's a ton of awesome bows out there now at all price ranges. Find a good pro shop in the area, tell them you are new and want to get into archery and they will help you out. If they get super pushy and try to sell you on any one specific option then move on to another store.

Double G Archery in Georgetown go see them. I went in there on a busy saturday and I believe the guy that owns it is named Paul. I told him I had no experience with bows and he spent about 2 or 3 hours with me teaching me every component and how to basically even shoot a bow. Highly recommend them

I always laugh when people say pigs cant be killed over bait at granger.
Me too... corn an area consistently or even hang a small feeder. Put a cheap camera on it (with a lock so the meth heads don’t steal it) and get em patterned. The veterans call that a rookie move- I call it getting groceries.

Ive killed a ton of pigs out there over the years and would say 75% came over bait.
One of the spots i know you hunt they will show up pretty regular as well!
