OOOOHHH YEAHHH (to quote Shawn Leonard)!!! What a great hunt with an incredible bunch of guys. I just got in today after being put up by the airlines. The weather in Dallas forced Mel (Irish) and I to miss connections.

I'd never seen javies before, never mind having no real idea how to hunt them. Once I got over the snake thing...OOHH YEAHHH some of the guys will have to fill in on that cause CK told this northener that they hadn't seen a snake in the previous 2 Sweats! Much more to come, I'm too tired to type...Doc

Fun lookin' group of guys.

Don't know what it is, but I flat don't like slithering reptiles. Also, Mexican (sans Dos Equis Special Lager) and Italian beer reminds me of the description of a former customer:
"How was that beer?"

"It reminded me of a Hamms that sat out, opened, in the sun all week." :p

What's Tecate?

tippit · « **Reply #30 on:** March 20, 2006, 09:17:00 PM »

With all it's stickers, thorns, and everything that moves also bites...the desert is beautiful.

tippit · « **Reply #31 on:** March 20, 2006, 09:23:00 PM »

Mickey, Tecate + lime + salt = Mexican Coctail for being in sun all day (Cold beer)! Doc

tippit · « **Reply #32 on:** March 20, 2006, 09:38:00 PM »

To add to Tery's quotes, one night while Jumper & CK were extracting thorns (very sterilely I might add with some hypodermic needles I brought...this is a cleanly group LOL)...Charlie who had 3 times as many scratches than anyone else was asked how he got all those thorns out?

"I wait til they fester real good and pop 'em out" Terry has a picture of his arms. Doc

Hehehehe, up north we don't (need to) cover the taste of our beer with lime and salt. We also finish our hunts after cold days, so a coctail would be considered a Basil Hayden bourbon with a splah of spring water. :D

But those sunsets sure are beautiful.

Heck, I'm a northener too, but that lime in the beer tastes mighty good after being in the sun most of the day. My body after not being in any heat since last August was rebelling the first day, temp around 100! Then it cooled down some or was it the Tecate? Doc

Except for that snake pic looks like it was a great time! Can't wait to see more pics and stories. (no snakes please, unless they are on the back of a bow!)

Glad to see you enjoyed yourself Jeff.

Jiiiha!

Man that was fun! Hunting with Terry and JC was most inspiring and the abundance of game was amazing.
Some lessons learned:
- The desert is beautiful
- but look where you step
- Patience- more patience
- Shoot!
- wait till you dont see their eyeballs
- Rattlesnakes are BIG

- Tecate is OK beer, after a few it is great beer
- dont tell a mexican otherwise
- Dead snakes are good snakes
- Bunnies are hard to hit, but javies even harder
- Retrieving arrows from Pricly Pear is a high risk sport, for several reasons..
- and do LOOK where you step
- A Pick Axe handle is very versatile
- Texas is a great place
- several other things

I had a fantastic time thanks to all the people there that made it a great and memorable event.
Even with the thorns of Mesquite, Pricly Pear, Pencil Cactus, Ticks and even Rattlesnakes i found the desert beautiful and not nearly as forbidding as i might have thought.
Thanks to all, for letting me in and for looking after me, the rookie Norwegian.
