Just got back
 

Well we just got back from the hog hunt.

First it was great to meet Greg (txjourneyman) he's a real nice guy and done everything he could for us.

Unfortunatley we never got any hogs but we did have hogs around us the whole time we where there,they just did not want to cooperate and come out of the thick stuff.

About 10 minutes after I got on stand I had a coyote come in and quickly leave, I took out my old trusty fox whistleandcalled him back, he offered me a 23 yard broad side shot but due to some twigs covering his vitals I did not send the arrow on it's way.

All in all we had a great time even tho none of us got a shot off, I will say this it was just great being back out in the woods again, I really did not care if I got anything or not, I was just happy being out there and doing what I love to do, this was my first hunt in over 2 years.

We are hoping to get back out there next week end weather permitting and if Greg can get a sitter forthe kids.

Greg it was a pleasure to meet you and spend the time at you place;)

Glad you had a good time and as you said, we don't have to kill something to have a great hunt. I may have to try to work on some coyotes, just wish it would warm up a little more first.

At least you were hunting, sounds like you had a good time! I know hunting seems just a brutal thought right now in the bitter sub zero temps we are having here! I bet it was beautiful weather for your hunt?

First hunt in 2 years[:o], man I bet it WAS good to get back out there again.

Don't worry, those pigs will be there waiting for ya next week.

I'll be going myself next week and can't wait to try and stick the flea bitten oinkers.
