2009 hunting plans?
« on: December 31, 2008, 02:45:00 PM »
Hey guy's and gal's,
 I wanted to ask if any one has any big plans for bow hunting this up comming year? I know the economy is tough, and most of us are just going to stick close to home.  

My wife's boyfriend (don't ask, long story) is originally from Edmonton, Alberta, he still has friend's and family there, AND THEY HUNT! His brother-in-law is going to send me all of the particulars. Hopfully I'll be able to cache some funds away and plan a whitetail hunt in the fall. If not this year, maybe next, we'll just have to see what happens.

Sounds like your long story has a good ending with an Alberta hunt in the future  :thumbsup:  

No big plans here, just hope to get out and have some fun hunting.

We are starting off the year right, with a trip to Texas for javelina, etc.  There are 5 of us trad hunters going.  Will be pulling out on Jan. 3.  Can't wait to get out of the cold here.

Start out with some turkey and bear this spring.  Then antelope, bear, deer and elk around home here in the fall.  And if it all comes together some whitetails in eastern Kansas around Nov. or Dec.  I am undecided on whether or not I am going to put in for antelope and deer in Wyoming.

Pig gig with the Wensel boys and my other Tradgang friends; Bob Walker, Tippit, Imdiablo, Hogdancer, Hillboy, Eric, Lloyd, Whip-I know I am leaving some out of my feeble mind here but you must admit, there's a FUN crew right there!       :thumbsup:            :jumper:    A bunch of us will be meeting up in San Antonio on February 8th then heading 2 hours south for pigs and javelina!  These are all Quebec Bear Quest vets too so we're starting to become a little traveling band here I think! This'll be a nice warm-up in any case!

Oh yeah, I almost forgot, I'm new to California so I'm for sure going to try my hand at some of those pigs that Kingwouldbe has been shooting.

I'm probably hunting in CO for elk again with Lone Archer, and 1 Hog hunt with Shiloh (SEPT) and one with Curtis from 7th age around June.

Anyone else that want to hunt with me and Curtis around June please let me know, I need 1 or 2 more to make it mo better!

Going to try for Arizona Coues deer and Maybe a  mule deer at the end of 09, or the start of the new yr. of 10. My father in-law lives in Tuscon so I've been wanting to hunt in different states, It will be my first of hopefully many out of state hunts. Been buying up some gear already.
