I am using 2", 100gr schwackers. I use a 70# bow with beeman 340 bow hunter arrows (9.3 gpi x 28.5"). I shot a doe this weekend, about 75# in weight. Complete pass through, but the shot was quartering and only one rib was broken. She fell over within 15 yards, I am impressed. But I'm concerned that the 2" may not give adequate penetration on a hog or a shoulder of a large buck. I would hate to loose a monster buck due to a penetration issue. Has anyone used the 2" schwackers on big hogs??
