Turner's Hog Hunt at Tejon June 29-30, 2002
By Jim Matthews.
LEBEC - For the third hunt in a row, there was a 100 percent-plus success rate on the Turner's Outdoorsman California Hog Hunter wild hog hunt held this past weekend on the Tejon Ranch, with all 10 hunters on the trip scoring.
Krystal Petty of Lancaster shot her first hog on the hunt. It was a present for her 14th birthday, and she hunted with her dad Jim Petty and her grandfather Earl Wise of Palmdale, both who also bagged pigs.
The best hog of the weekend was a huge sow that weighed over 250 pounds taken the first evening of the hunt by Dan Cross of Fountain Valley. His hunting partner Jack Nash of Monrovia shot two hogs on the hunt, both eating-size sows.
David McNicoll of West Hills and Scott Porter of Newbury Park hung nearly identical meat hogs on the game rack at the hunting lodge on the Tejon, while bowhunters Bob Wise of Oak Hills and Andy Probert of Wrightwood each managed to stick meat pigs the last morning of the hunt. Tim Guzzy of Glendora also waited until the last minute, bagging his meat pig Sunday evening.
This was the fifth of six nonguided hog hunts held on the ranch this year. Both May hunts also saw at least 10 hogs taken on each hunt with several hunters taking two hogs. The final hunt of this year will he the end of July. and that hunt is completely booked. The hunt dates for 2003 have already been set, and hunters interested in participating next year, can call the California Hog Hunter office at (909) 877-3444.
