Default Tracking Combo--S&W M28-2 & Ball Bearing Steel

I do a lot of traditional bowhunting. Sometimes I need a little extra security when hunting hogs & bears. This combo seems to fit the bill nicely for tracking a wounded big guy.

Just picked up my second Highway Patrol S&W 28-2 serial # N20299X with 4" barrel. Pictured with one of my hand forged hunting blades out of 52100 ball bearing steel and an old bone from a black bear I shot with my longbow...should cover the bases for me.

I assume you have verified it's legal in your state to carry a firearm while bow hunting. Some states prohibit doing so and violation can include fines, forfeiture of the gun, and loss of the hunting license.

We have a farm in SC where it is legal to use even for hunting hogs as long as you don't have laser sights attached...but my longbow does my hunting not my gun. I just carry a handgun while tracking usually at night. It's very comforting when you're blood trailing one of these guys!



I don't carry or even take a hand gun while bear hunting in Quebec. Just my longbow...this June 260# Black Bear.
