Moving to CA...???

[MikeW]

Well my moving to CA. thread was pulled...not sure why?

Anyways it looks like I am going to go ahead and do it. Sometime around March-June. My wife has lots of family there and misses them and hates Texas. My brother still lives there(North Eastern Sierras) and is one of the few people I enjoy hunting with. I was really worried about the hunting opportunities but after talking to him more it doesn't sound so bad after all. He said getting an archery tag for deer in zone X12(which is where I grew up and want to hunt) is no problem, worst case it would be every other year on a draw. Plus the area has lots a bear now and that is over the counter. Now I just need to find some hogs and turkey.

Looks like we will be moving to the Oceanside area for right now,that's only about a 6 hr drive to see my brother. I'm from Texas and 6hrs ain't nothing,I'm use to that.

I'm getting a Maddog mid size recurve for my wife for Xmas..any trad groups/clubs that do 3D in the Oceanside/San diego area?

OceanSide is beautiful. Goodluck!

Do a search for "Tejon" in Pow Wow and I think you'll find a pal or two for chasing CA hogs.
Yes, Oceanside is beautiful and great waves.  Get a long board and a wetsuit for winter surfing.

I'm just down in Del Mar. There's a TradGang hog hunt shaping up for the end of January at Tejon. Keep checking PowWow for details. Welcome back to CA.
