T-bone, got deposits from you, your dad, Jim, and an envelope from Don today. Will open that one when I get home Friday. Anybody else coming?

 

[T Bone]

Don's envelope has two deposites in it. 5 total hunters. Hope to have 10 pigs hanging in the cooler by Saturday night!

Pic's ... Details...!!!!!

We gotta know!!!

 

[Moosie]

WELL.. the boys should be back Snug in their bed.... FILL us in, how did it go ?

 

[T Bone]

Here's the report. The hunt was tough. The cold weather had moved most of the pigs to lower elevations. I hunted hard for two days, covered lots of ground and saw 3 pigs. One of which was a nice boar, but didn't offer a shot.

Out of five hunters, two got shots. One was at a nice boar at 35 yards, but he choked and undershot it. The other hunter took a desperation shot at a running boar at 50 yards.

We had lots of fun. I guess I could call it an expensive camping trip.

 

[Kraven]

Glad ya all had a great trip too bad no one score on a hawg.

 

[Elkhunter]

Well, you could have been working or stayed at home, but instead you went out and had a good time even if you didn't score.

 

[schmalts]

sorry you didnt score. What was up with the weather?? I leave thursday and it looks like its gonna be cold.

 

[T Bone]

Chopper has agreed to have us back for another hunt! Will wait until the warm spring weather moves the pigs back up the tops where Chopper's ranch is.

 

[bigtusker]

T-bone, you can tell Jim and Don that the pig they both missed weighed 175 pounds with 2 1/2 inch tusks.

 

[T Bone]

Ha! Glad you got him. Could you tell if there was anything wrong with his hearing? That pig was deaf!

You mentioned you have one hunt booked for May. What weekend is it? We're thinking May right now.

 

[bigtusker]

May 28 - 30 is booked. Avoid the full moon on the 4th. Mothers day is the 9th.

 

[T Bone]

Good thinking on the Mother's day weekend.....

Let's pencil in May 14-16.

A bad day of hunting is always better than a good day of work.
