K-RAD, what part of Wisconsin are you from? I'm originally from Stevens Point -- went to school there as well. Had access to literally thousands of acres of private farmland to hunt. I spent everyday after school in the fall on a tree stand or walking the woods for grouse. I haven't been back for a while but really miss the hunting opportunities I had -- I guess they probably don't exist any more?

POINT BEER!! All of my family is from a small town south of Madison called Belleville. I grew up in Milwaukee but spent all summers and all holidays at my Grandfather's dairy farm near bellville. If I am lucky I go back about every other year with my daughter and son for spring walleye fishing at the family's cabin in Hazelhurst just south of Minaquawa. I love it back there! If I had more than 50/50 custody of the kids with x/wife I would have moved back a long time ago. They love it there also...
Just to fully Jack your thread here is a link to a few pictures of my granfather's barn that we dismantled last fall. I will be building a new house here out of the beams when I find the right piece of land... http://www.greenwall.us/reclaimed_post_and_beam.php
Sorry about the :thread jacked: Mel.
I'll quit my belly-acken and shut my pie-hole now...

Good luck guys. I'd love to go again this year, but will be in Italy.

Doing a boar hunt in Umbria for a couple days, besides the regular vacation.

Sancho,
No body has really said, I know most the guys who are going rifle hunted last time. Archers will be put in a spot by themselves, where that will be l im not sure, just depends on where George has been seeing the hogs.

You thinking about going?

Evlaz,
Haven't really started a list yet, but I have a few people who already told they want in. Let me know for sure and how many. I will be posting it up sometime in September, but will start creating a list when people tell me they want in.

I will start one up.
