Heading out for hogs in 30 minutes for the weekend.

[**DONOTDELETE**]

trim the sleeves hanging camo or get a camo sleeve to go over it.

 sounds like BBQ time to me, good luck

Good luck. Where in Texas are you going ?

Just an hour an a half from my front doorstep! Private 2000 acres hi fence club, nobody hunts.

Sat 10' from a large bobcat for about 10 minutes. No deer.

I pulled the left sleeve up to my armpit and secured it with the rancho safari arm strap.

Gotta love the ghillie......

Looking forward to hearing more your hunt.

Best of luck.

Good Luck? You're hunting hogs...On 2000 private acres...In Texas. Sounds like you've already got luck on your side:)

But, I guess you can't have too much luck so, I wish you the best of luck. Take lots of photos!

I'm glad in a way that we don't have them here where I live because they over populate so fast and do so much damage, but I can't help but envy you all who can be hog huntin in less than an hour.
I've never got to hunt hogs, but I sure would love to!

Good luck, hope you stick a pig!

I'll fire up the grill and pick up a bottle of Sweet Baby Rays!

SKUNKED. I duck hunted this AM and was in the wrong spot.

On my way out going home, I went to check the feeder this PM at 12:30. Every single kernel of corn gone. Every single one. Tracks everywhere. I followed the high fence to the NW corner and came back to follow it to the NE corner. Multiple breaches in it bordering a very nice oak forest, hog and deer tracks covering both roads:

NW fenceline:

   

NE fenceline:

   

The view of the blind from the deer's perspective @ 17 paces:

 

As I've posted before, I surround myself with those weeds, and pile them high behind me, brushing myself in. The shooting spot is elevated about 4' high from the ground the feeder rests on. Awesome spot. Jan 16th closes the season.

Keep rolling the dice - you will score.

I'm just floored by the amount of tracks in that area, still..........

Another thing is the drainage of the big lake on the property, or the marsh, or Ducktopia, as my buddy calls it, has plenty of, well, marsh and you would not believe the amount of hog tracks in there. Anywhere you wouldn't be in water in that marsh, there were zillions of hog tracks. I envision a hog hunt in that marsh at some point, if there's a way to beat the skeeters, it would be NUTS. Pretty sure it would be safer in winter due to gators in the lake (do they like marshes?).

I think it would be awesome to hunt that marsh. Anyone done this type of either spot and stalk or still hunt?

You lucky dog, we do not have wild hogs here in Utah. Have to go home to Cali and hunt them on the central coast.  :mad:
