Is that 2 hours towards Arkansas or two hours in some other direction?

[2ndovc]

Joe,

Is this the Avery, Tx location?

jb

[86er]

Two hours towards Arkansas (East from Dallas). It may be in Clarksville, Wolfe City or Binary depending on interest.

[2ndovc]

NE Texas I'm in. I finally get my second week vacation as of Jan 1!
But,
We Have a training class the day I'd have to leave but I'll see if I can get out of it tomorrow.

Where do I send the money?

[86er]

PM sent

[2ndovc]

Hey Joe,

Shoot me your address again so I can send some $.

Blondie is going to ride along. i was trying to get her to give it a try but she's not having it.

She has an aunt that lives in NE Texas so she'll probably just drop me off and be on her way.
Looking forward to it!

jb

[RKrodle]

Look forward to seeing you again Jason. We'll have a good time!

[2ndovc]

I'm sure!

Hope some more guys come along. It is a blast!

Having a hard time deciding what to bring. I've had my .450 Marlin for almost six years
and haven't bagged anything with it yet. So that one is coming for sure. The second one is up in the
air still. Though I have it down Grandpa's '03, my Marlin 35Rem or the new Rolling Block.
Leaning toward the Rolling Block but that could change by the end of Feb.

Can't wait!!

Got one from NJ flying in, so the group is growing!

[2ndovc]

Cool! At least I won't be the only Yankee!

Come on Vance. We need to trade some more insults!

Insults!?! That was me being nice

My freezers so full I'm afraid to open the door. But, I wouldn't mind stopping by to bust your chops a bit (and make sure you find the state line just fine when it's time for you to go home)

If my schedule allows I'll make an appearance and chew the fat with y'all a bit. Maybe we won't need a boat like we did last time you were here.

(I was in NW Ohio last month and the rivers were out the banks there!)

[FWiedner]

Startin' to think I need a new hog in the freezer.

[olyinaz]

Please forgive the ignorant question: How does one get the meat home if we were to fly into Dallas? Thanks.

Oly

[FWiedner]

OK, I'm in.

I'm on a day shift now, so I reckon I'll be awake to socialize this time.

[FWiedner]

Oly

Maybe freeze it, put it in a cooler with a block of dry ice and ship it it FedEx over-night?

[allhands]

This sounds great! But maybe next year....Africa first!!!!!!!!

[86er]

To get meat home put your clothes in a cooler and include a duffle bag, check it in. On the way home you put clothes in duffle bag and carry on. Ck in cooler w meat. I send folks home w meat all the time. There are a few other options. One way or another I will make it happen.

[Rafe Covington]

Is there a caliber restriction, thinking about goin on this hunt. Would like to use my 1876 in 50-95 WCF.

Thanks
Rafe

[2ndovc]

Pretty sure you can use what ever you want. Last time i was down there I saw .223's to .405 Winchesters.

I shot my .33 WCF and .35 WCF.

Great time!

The only problem is keeping us from drooling on it.

And coon-fingering it

[Ji in Hawaii]

Aloha Joe, WOW It's already been almost 4 years since I last was in Texas hunting with You, Ricky, Piller, and Tycer, etc. great memories, time flies. One day I want to get back out to Texas and hunt with you guys again, I haven't hunted since that trip. Sounds like a GREAT deal all inclusive. We have plenty pigs here but no hunting companions of high caliber like you guys. Take care and have fun.

[86er]

Due to the moon phase and some other considerations this would work better SUN and MON or the following weekend. Let me know if that is a problem!

[86er]

Still room for more hunters! No caliber or weapon restrictions, bring your handguns, muzzleloaders and bows! Note the date change - SUN-MON.

[FWiedner]

BTT

[86er]

Our hog hunt is kind of slim this year. We have had as many as 14 participants in the past. This year we have just 3. If you'd like to come out and join us it is not too late. You can use a handgun, bow/crossbow, rifle, shotgun, whatever. Newbies are discounted and the hunt is a guaranteed shot opportunity. Anyone else!

[C. Cash]

Thinking very hard on this, but may have to book on another occassion.

[2ndovc]

BTT.

Can't wait. Leaving a week from tomorrow!!

Bringing my .45-70 Rolling Block and my .450 Marlin.
