Javelina Hunting Q&A with Armando Martinez

Javelina Hunting Q&A with Armando Martinez

 

Show Notes:

Armando Martinez, also known as “the Bow Hitch” guy, is back to talk about all things Javelina hunting here in Arizona. We did a raffle for Howl for Wildlife for a fully guided javelina hunt with yours truly, and Armando was the lucky winner. We’re heading out during the upcoming HAM (handgun, archery, and muzzleloader) season, which is a great time of year for javelina. Archery season ends at the end of January and the new season kicks off on the 10th of February which gives the animals a chance to equalize a bit.

 

Armando reached out and wanted to do a bit of a Q&A on javelina hunting for all the listeners. We kick off by going into detail on what a javelina even is. They’re hoofed animals and are actually related to the hippopotamus. People in Arizona call them pigs, and the name “javelina” means “little javelins” and refers to the little tusks they have. We talk about key characteristics, differences between males and females, and what makes a particular javelina a good one to take down. In Arizona, javelina season starts as early as August and I share the best times of year to head out.

 

We chat about vitals and where to aim your shots, with the shoulder being your best bet. Javelinas do charge and go on the offensive, which makes them a great animal to call. I cover Arizona’s point system and why it’s one of the best and a little bit about my outfitting business, including what a typical hunt looks like. We talk about all the gear you need for stalking and glassing, which caliber bow to bring with you, and tips for shooting javelina with a rifle (shooting bags make all the difference). 



What’s Inside:

  • Javelina habits and characteristics.
  • What makes a good target javelina.
  • Best times of year to hunt and how to draw tags.
  • Vitals and where to aim your shot.
  • Details about my outfitting business and how to set up a hunt.
  • Ideal gear for stalking and glassing.
  • How shooting bags help your rifle.
