May as well shoot doves with it too. Quite the challenge, making the perfect dove/hog, bolt action.

Be proud to bring beer and other refreshments.
If anyone needs a lift I will be coming from the Brownwood area.

Flying first class will be cheaper than buying beer for this crowd,Steve.

isaac, we all know the beer will run out some time. "But" if I time it right more Doves will be missed than hit.
How about a side bet handicapping with the sub gauges, ie. 28 ga and 410 against the 12 and 20s. Must be some skeet and trap shooters willing to play that game.

ltpowell,
Could you slap a numero dos next to my name. Pretty sure the boy and my Dad will make the trip as well.
Thanks for your efforts on this by the way. Could be a great time.

We'll build the list of potential shooters, and as soon as details are worked out, I'll post them. Depending on the size and type of accomodations, we may have to limit the number of hunters at some point. I'm trying to keep the base price as low as possible, but locate an area where opportunities exist (other than birds) for some of our members that may be interested in something such as exotics. After details are lined out, members will have an opportunity to confirm their participation and be provided with an address to send a deposit. Then we'll REALLY plan a party.

Okay, here's what it looks like so far. South Texas/San Antonio area, Sept.2-4, shoot Friday PM, Saturday AM/PM and Sunday AM/PM. (It's Labor Day weekend.) Cost, including lodging and meals will be LESS than $750. (How much less, is being negotiated.) It looks like a very nice, private golf course will be available for anybody interested. Pricing for non-hunters is also being negotiated. I know info is sparse at this time, but I will forward details as they evolve in an effort to help with the decision making process and planning.

Pat throws one Hell of a party and if Bart shows, the food those two put together will be superb. It might be a first for me,though. I don't think I've ever dove hunted when it was 120 degrees before.
