[Littlefeather]

I'm happy that everyone is getting geared up and ready. We have a few spots still open for the first hunt. If anyone is interested in coming for an awesome hog and javelina adventure drop me an email@ [email protected]

I'll on the ranch December 7-12th to get more prep work done.

I wanted to remind everyone that all these hunts begin at noon.     Curtis Kellar

I am hunting with my DAS Daala 58" 55@28", Heritage 90's with 125 Snuffers and Wensels.  Also have a couple of Magnus and Abowyer heads saved for the big boys.

Friday can't get here quick enough!  Everyone be prepared for freezing or near freezing night time temps and some great fun and fellowship!  

Curtis has been getting our hunting areas prepped and ready for a great hunt, but won't be able to help us drag our quarry back to camp this year, as he continues to mend.

This is a heck of a way to ring in the New Year!
