ROAD TRIP WITH A ST JUDES FLAVOR/HOGS
« on: February 12, 2013, 06:31:00 PM »
As most of you remember, I put up a turkey hunt/raffle back during the St Jude auction. My friend Marty McMahon graciously agreed to add a 3 day hog hunt for the winner If I would come down and hunt as well.  Michael Langahans' youngest daughter, Mills, was drawn as the winner by tradgang Icon Bernie Dunn.

After much anticipation, my van is loaded and i'm leaving in the morning. spending the night in jacksonville fl with an old army buddy and then on to meet Marty and crew at noon thursday.

Spent 3 hours at ungent care sunday getting my finger stitched up but the good news is I can still shoot my bow and my broadheads are scary sharp. lol

I'm trying to talk my local Harley shop guy out of a banner to bring for the buggy.  
We'll get Mills to start a thread when we get back to give yall a taste of being there.

Here's three pics to get the ball rolling.

Sharp and ready
 
Did I mention they were sharp?

Best let somebody else dress your hogs for you with that wound. Good luck and safe travels!

LOL - great start, buddy, love the "Hog" banner from the Harley shop. Can't wait to see Mills' pics and write-up. Good luck and be safe - all of you, (and YOU keep your fingers away from THAT end of the arrows, Don - LOL).

Maybe the wound is a fake and it was intended for someone else to clean his hogs.....just sayin.

I thought you were supposed to test a blade's sharpness with a rubber band?  Good luck and don't touch those pretty silver ends again.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
