Man, what a great hunt! I wish I could go again next week. Thanks to Curtis and everyone in camp – Barry (Buckster), Dustin (Toehead), Paul (BlacktailBowhunter), Mack, and Craig!
Curtis is the real deal when it comes to hogs and javelina! Even though you can visibly see that Curtis is still in pain from his recent accident, you can also see a boyish-enthusiasm and drive for the hunt. His knowledge and ability to read sign is incredible – kind of reminds you of native African trackers. My advice it to pay attention when Curtis speaks.
For Louisiana boys it was indeed cold and windy! We left Louisiana around 4am on 12/30 and drove to Ozona, TX where we spent the night. The next morning we drove the final hours to the ranch and quickly made camp before heading out for an afternoon hunt. There were plenty of javelina in the area and many shot opportunities. My brother and son both killed two javelina and I killed one after hitting my first one a little too far back. Javelina don't keep still and are tough critters. My son’s second one required four arrows, a shovel, and a machete.
Again, thanks to the guys in camp. It was a pleasure and I would really enjoy sharing a camp with you again someday…
Here are a few photos. I'll try to post a few more later.........
