Hogs are really moving
« on: August 03, 2005, 03:51:41 AM »
We've had a little rain at home, it sure has the hogs tearing up the hay fields and pastures, I plan taking care of a few of them this weekend.  I am trying out some of Easton's ST Axis arrows, they are shooting good and everything I've read sounds really good.  Maybe I'll get lucky and test them out on a big ole boar!!!

nail a couple of them piggies.  I gotta get my bow out and get to shooting.  It has been so hot in the afternoons though.   They appear to be moving alot on my local lease as well, but no doubt after dark when it cools off....  Good luck!

If you need any help with them pigs. Let me know your just a shot drive from me.
I jumped some out of some thick cover but never could get a clear place for a shot. Havent seen them since but its only been a week or so.

I was at my place in Leon Co. this weekend and saw no sign of a hog.  Surprised me, but it has been an extremely dry summer there and the ground is hard as rock.
I have a live creek that usually keeps them close, but it was too hot for me to chase them anyway.  
They will probably show up when I get the foodplots plowed and the deer feeders going.

Ron, where do you hunt around Caldwell?  If you've lived in Caldwell most of your life, we bound to have ran into one another at the SPJST hall a time or two.  I lived in the Dime Box area up until the last year, now I'm in the big city of Bryan, but I'm headed home this evening to hopefully take care of a rooter or two!!!

I live 13 miles down FM 2000 on 60 acres of land. I have another 60 than I can hunt also. I dont have a lot of time to hunt since I work 6 days a week.
I just moved back to Caldwell from College Station. But I lived in Caldwell till 86.
If you want to come out and shoot sometime I have a 100 yard and a 200 yard bunkers set up. Plus a 12foot skeet tower with a electric thrower in my back yard. Just let me know.

A couple old friends used to have places down that road, one we used to hunt coyotes with dogs with and the other started us out hunting with a rifle and a bow!!!  I would like to shoot some clay birds one of these days.  Talk to you later.

Well, I was right.   Two feeders going and they both had hogs under them Sunday morning.    I bet when I get ready to hunt and butcher one, they will be MIA again.
My 10 yr old son will be deer hunting next month and those pigs better look out.     He has never misseed.  Must have got that from his mom!
