Thanks Jim.

We're back and had a really fun weekend.  We were hunting on Brushy Hill just south of Sabinal.  It's a really nice ranch with 13,000 acres and incredible water for south Texas.  Gman got him a really nice grill hog and I stuck one but could not find it.  These hogs are totally nocturnal but there are a lot of them.  I'll be back on a full moon after I purchase me a little more night hunting equipment for my bow.  Another guy that was out there got a nice 300lb boar.  The thing was huge!  Photos coming soon....

Allen, let me say thanks again for taking me on the hog hunt, I had a blast. What a rush to see all of those hogs coming across that field right at me, then getting my first hog ever and with a bow. I thought my heart was going to jump out of my chest. I definately want to go back on the next trip.

Hey glad to hear it was a successful hunt.  Did you take any pics of the kill?  If so post them for us all the envy.  Who all went?  Later fellas.

It was my pleasure gman.  Great to meet and hunt with you.  I hope we can again very soon!

Here is a pic of gman's next meal on the grill...

What a monster, now that is a Texas Grizzly. I bet that thing could bite your toe nail off.

Hey Gman:

It was just a smaller target and therefore harder to hit.  Watch some wise guy from New York talk about how they are bigger up there.

You gotta tell them the story behind it gman.  It would raise hairs on any man's neck...  I tell you there is nothing more exciting then hunting hogs in the dark!

And with a bow no less. Talk about making things hard on yourself.

So here goes,

Saturday afternoon 5:15 and I'm back in the stand about 20 yards from a feeder that has a huge crator rooted out below it. Nothing but rabbits, birds and a ton of knats and skeeters so at 7:15 I get down to check a road that were we poured corn. The road was about 30 yards from my stand and I had good cover heading to the road. Well I made it to the road but could not see anything out in the corn. I decided to wait out the rest of the day light watching the road. Then I hear a loud squeel behind me and turn around to see 2 very large hogs having a little tussel about 60 yards away. The larger of the 2 hogs turns and starts to run towards the corn that is near where my stand was setup. I start hearing what sounds like cattle running thru the brush and about 25 to 30 hogs come out of the brush heading towards the large boar and the corn. About this time I notice that I am standing directly in the middle of the corn line we had poured, not a good feeling, and the hogs are working my way. With my heart almost jumping out of my chest, the hogs get to about 20 yards I drew my bow, almost in defense, but I could not see my site pins because in all of the excitement I had not turned on the pin illuminator that Allen had given to me the night before. I had only one choice, take a step into the road and try to get enough of the last sunlight that was left to light my fiberoptic pins. Well the hogs saw me move and scattered across the field. I took the time to let down my draw and turn on the pin light. Now, I'm just hoping that I did not spook them too much to return to the corn. I got what I wanted and here they came, right at me, I can still see that line of large hogs(150 - 250lbs) coming my way. I started looking for a tree near by just in case but all the trees were Mesquite bushes and too small to get up into. By now the smaller hogs are at 15 yards again and the larger hogs are hanging about 25 to 30 yards out so I draw my bow again and hope these small hogs near me will split up and give me a good broadside shot. Just then this small hog splits off of the group and comes my way. I center the pin just behing the shoulder and touch off my release. WHACK!SQUEEEEEEL! and they all run. WOW, what a rush, even though I knew I had shot one of the smaller hogs I was excited as this was my first hog and I got it with a bow from the ground. I can't wait to go again.  I would also like to try and find a GUN hog hunt we could get a group on, that would be a blast.

The final yardage of the shot was 11 yards, what a rush. Don't miss the next hunt, it will be worth the money.

Allen, you were right, the Javalina season is open year round in Uvalde Co. and limit is 2 per year.

That aboy G! Good job buddy. I wish I could have made the trip, but I've been knee deep in I've been pretty busy lately. I'm going out this weekend to Richland Chambers WMA to hunt some hogs. I've been scouting last couple of weekends and have been running across them pretty regular. I'll let you guys know how it goes. 

Oh yeah, I'm typing right now on a PC, my Mac doesn't seem too work on this site, so my ability too talk here is pretty limited. I like this site and hope too get on here more often. You guys take care!

A conclusion is most often simply the place where you get tired of thinking.

Very good post and story with a lot of nerve involved.
