Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire 2015 24 Hour Campfire Hog Hunt

I'll wear a hat next. In case I bang my head on the blind again...

A bicycle helmet.

I am bringing a kick ass do it all rifle FC is putting together fo moi.

That thing will be going out all by itself and rope a hog. Its got a Montana Sling, after all. Thats what Pat said on his website, I swear.

Rifle is a Root Recommended .308 Win. 22" barrel Talley Mounts
Scope will be Leupold Vari X IIc 3-9x40 with Heavy Duplex.

I think we can work something out to raffle TWO birds at a discounted rate....maybe $100 per ticket for each bird! And we will pay for the taxidermy....Lois wants some boots

cool

My vote is that the hunt stay on the East coast, maybe PA.
It sounds like TX was fun but I don't think I'm alone when I say that I think the total of costs involved was prohibitive.
Just my $.02

There may be others hunts but this one is going to stay in TX hunting PA isn't really quite what we are looking for in the hunting part of the equation.

Dan,

The Texas hunt seemed like way too much fun to change it and because of that, I think we should keep it.

I'm also going to check out an additional place to hunt in Tennessee this week. That general location seemed to work for a lot of us and the Tennessee hills and the people there are pretty attractive. Unfortunately, the owner of the place we went to before turned out to be big time unreliable. I think we can do much better and give the guys at the Fire more options.

Agreed Steve!

Steve, maybe I've just been lucky over the years, but I've always had a good time when I've been to Texas.

there's a reason for the saying .... you can go to hell , I'll go to Texas. god bless Texas.

Ha I'm wearing that shirt right now! Thanks again Patrick

tjm,

I don't think that having a good time in Texas is just luck. I've been there about a dozen times and always enjoyed it. The Texans, the wide open spaces, the hunting and the food all made it memorable and enjoyable for me.

We need to keep on going back. And God bless Dan and the others for making it happen.

Steve

Dan: Have you scouted for new ranches etc. that can host the hunt. I like Texas too, but we need one with a buttload -o- pigs!

Ive been pounding around down there and can tell you a couple NOT to go with....

I'm working on that Poobs,
Next year I will guarantee lots and lots of hogs will be present where ever we end up. Plenty of time this go round to make every thing right

There is a gigantic payoff for taking the time to find the right place to hunt. There is plenty of time to do this and it will be time well spent.

And I have no doubt that Dan will find the right place.

It may help him if some members know of good places to hunt and which to avoid and pass that on to Dan. I've heard that Texas is a pretty large place!

Steve

Lois has a bead on the ostrich !

if the timing is right we can shoot dove on our place.

Cool beans! you did a fantastic job on short notice this time! The accommodations were the absolute shizz. Ed and I slept like kids till 10 am the morning we were supposed to leave at 8:30..
