Wild Pig Hunting Inc. VII (actual hunt)

[BobbyZ]

Depending on if another hunt happens or not, I may be able to jump in at the last second. Would that be possible Mel?

Should be ok, I have another person who may jump in later as well.

Just got back from the range again. Muzzle loader is dead on at 200 yards. Only 1 month left, man this is going to be a long month.

 

[Mel Carter]

Anyone doing any preparation for the hunt? I bought a new pair of Danners, hitting the shooting range to get dialed in, still need to do some exercise to try and drop a few pounds. 3 weeks left!

I just picked up a couple new guns at a screaming deal. One is a Winchester over under and the other is a weatherby in 300 win mag. I have to figure out some optics but I think that's what I'll be using this year

what!!?

a winchester 101?!!

 

[KTKT70]

im guessing he means the 300 win. Not to many people hunt pigs with a over under. lol

i know that..i was just wondering if he got a win 101 for cheap. that is my favorite over and under..at least in the top 5.

 

[Fugaloo]

Yes a Winchester 12 gauge select field for $250. I call that a win

 

[Mel Carter]

Ok guys, we have less the 2 weeks to go! I believe everyone already knows how to get to the meeting place except John, but I have him the address.

Same as previous years, meeting time is 11;00am sharp! We will meet in the parking lot of the visitors center.

If anyone has any questions please let me know, if not ill see you all on Friday the 11th!!!

I think we'll have a really good time together if we eat as a group. I would be willing to slow cook some pork ribs on Friday and then we could just heat them up Saturday night. Costco sells three full racks for $30. If everyone wanted to split the cost I will pay my share and do the cooking. Then I think if we had beans and salad that would make a great dinner and a good opportunity to sit around the table as a group and tell stories rather than everybody doing his own thing. Mel do you know if we definitely have the camp ground.

Also I just got back from a backpacking hunt in the Sierras. I bought a lightweight water purifier. I suggest everybody buy one. It will allow you to lighten your water load in your pack because you can refill with all those springs out there

 

[Mel Carter]

Getting everyone together is a great idea but sometimes much harder then it sounds, I made fajitas for everyone one year and it was a chore. Lol

I asked George and he said we would have the camp ground this year.

 

[ruger_mac]

Those were some good fajitas Mel!! Get some of that marinade you used on the chicken you cooked at the birthday party that stuff is awesome!!

 

[ruger_mac]

Hey Fug maybe you can make something with that squirrel you got today. I'll definitely bring some sausage from last years pig. I'll need to make room in my freezer....

Are you guys talking Big horn cyn ranch in Hemet? I have hunted there kind of disappointing. The hogs are farm raised you can find one tie a rope to it and bring it back. we made the hunt fun by finding one that was bedded down in a very steep ravine. I did have fun though and the helper was very nice.

This isn't the big horn ranch. This is in Sonoma county and is all fair chase.

 

[carhex]

Nice sounds like what i was looking for when I hunted big horn ranch

[Fugaloo]

It's the real deal. The place is big and there are plenty of real hogs there.

You might wanna leave the beans out with 13 dudes hanging out , thats a lot of butt trumpeting . Place would smell like a raw sewage plant
