Great situation for ya! You must have made quite an impression on them for him to loan you a gun and send you to the back of his property with his wife. Either that, or he's got a big insurance policy out on her! Congrats on the good fortune!

Yep...I'm harmless ..I wouldn't hurt anyone man..never been in a physical fight in my life..

Looking forward to the pics of your downed hogs!

Congrats Chuck, like they say,"Good things happen to Good people". God Bless you brother.

Thanks Friends.

I haven't seen any hogs and I let the owners know I would be taking my stand down..TOO HOT..[&o]

Here was their reply..
Hi Chuck,
Linda and I look forward to the cooler weather and your return. Since there is no need to rush, come on back at your convenience, as your place here is reserved!
We have been told that the hogs have been in and out of the area a block south of our place, but they haven't returned here in over a week. We will tell you when they return. It's a good idea to put your stand in a safe place and out of the weather.
Regards, Bob and Linda.

Today as I picked up my stand I found out that rhey gated the property..They gave ne a key..They also told me there is no need to pay money to shoot at a range..I can do all my shooting in their back yard as well as put my Summit in there tree and shoot from that too.I'm amazed at their kindness..


MTHands..you would be surprized at his occupation.He was a racecar driver..Driving the big races..He still builds and sells them..His tiny Ford Ranger has a 400 HP engine in it..One of his racecars has Dale Earnharts name on it. I'm not into racing ..was Dale's number 3 ?..because this car has a 3 on it..

man that is neat but not really surprised florida has always been a "hotbed" for racing. both drag racing and oval track...it is truly amazing the people you meet out in "the real world" BTW dale did run the number 3 for the bulk of his career, sadly he left us too early[&o]

if nothing else it restore your confidence that there are still good folks out there, and there are, the more i try to see the good in folks the more it reveals itself

man, i am so happy that you have been blessed with this opportunity, hopefully the hogs will be cooperative, they sound like very good people

Yes sir,,,He hasdrove in the Hooter Races and many others..He has 5 new indy motors that he showed me.The entire block and intake are aluminum with 4 cam shafts...I couldn't believe his Ford Ranger with a 383 in it..at 400 horse..He only drove in those big races MT...His race cars are like the kind on TV at Daytona..He has two..The black looks like a Monte Carlo body..a one seater and the entire inside is a roll cage..with Wrangler written on the side..I'm not sure about the Dale Earnhart..It's blue and looks like a Chevrilet to me..

The folks treat me like a son..and I have no idea why..They have a 20 foot high burm of dirt behind their home for shooting..with a nice tall pine tree..They said I could shoot my bow from that tree..and myrifles at the burm.That will save me 10.00 visits from the range..and I won'r feel rushed or go deaf from the other guns . ..I know it's not for money..I have not given them a penny..I think they want a package of hog sauage..which I'd be more than happy to do.
