Nah, you don't need snake boots. In Florida I hunt in rubber boots almost exclusively.

hitman what brand snake boot do you use?

TBEAR, I sent you a couple of PMs....... Get some rubber boots from Cabelas (I think I paid 60 bucks for mine), and that is all you will need for Florida.

Whitworth is right, but to answer your question; mine are Rockys. Like I said, I survey land and am out in the woods a lot. They cost about $150 bucks for a pair.

well i ask because i'm heavier and harder on boots being in ny don't have alot of need for rubbers but want to be comfortable while hunting nothing worse then walking in a boot that either is uncomfortable or hurts

Couldn't agree with you more, but I like the tall rubber boots because you frequently get your feet wet in Florida and they will keep the chiggers off of your legs. Plus, the rubber boots keep the hogs from smeeling your feet -- I'm not kidding!

Well, apparently; some people's feet smell more than other's.

Hence the rubber boots.......

I am in NE FL and would be interested in joing yall on your little pig hunt. My 450 encore and I havent got to spend much time together.

Willy, were you stationed at Camp Lejeuene?

I sure was. I left the Corps June 31st this year.

There is life after oohrah - I know!! Congrats and thanks for your service!

Gentlemen, let me get a tentative headcount so we can slowly start solidifying our plans. I talked to the outfitter a couple of weeks ago and he knows when we are approximately planning this trip.......

I think I'm going insane to be hooked up with you characters.....

But I'm in....

By that time I still won't have any work,and will need to get out of the house

Dan

If it is in the March timeframe, I'm in!
Peter.

Excellent! It will be a good time had by all! Who else?

I have two nonposters coming with me.

Get em posting, Hitman!

Can I ask that you PM me if you intend to come down for the hunt? I need a head count and I need to then talk to the outfitter. He is offering us a discount if there are at least 10 of us heading down there. Then we will discuss sleeping arrangements.

Seeing how I live in the Panhandle, have a handgun, I like to join y'all.

Excellent! Will have moredetails next week.....

looks like i'll have a nonposter coming also

Excellent, TBEAR! Standby for details......

What is the location in the panhandle?have to figure how long a drive from N'Awlins.just got back from quail hunting in s GA&think i met myself in Mobile.

Don't quote me but i believe it is shady grove fl i'm sure marko will confirm or give actual if wrong

It is Shady Grove. More details towards the end of the week.

Mapquest shows 2 Shady Grove,FL.1 E of Talahassee(Taylor cty)&1 W of Talahassee (Jackson cty).any idea which one?Thanks.

Don't recall. Check on the website -- www.floridaslamoutfitters.com

Looks like this one is E of Talahassee.

Looks like I will be +1. What is this going to cost and what is the time frame?

PM sent on the hog hunt. I've been playing with my rifles and the deer but the handgun is ready for the hogs. Can't wait to see the place.

The tentative deal I've made is a two-day hunt at $100.00/day and this lets you shoot a hog a day....... More details to follow......

Damn, I'm purple from holding my breath! What is this "c..tus interruptus"?
Peter.

That's it! There is a trailer/bunkhouse on the property, but am not sure about the capacity, but there is an okay hotel in town only a few miles away that is $40.00 a night........

I will know more later in the week.......

Hold on! Are you telling I only have to show up with two stinking rounds? (One if I can get them to line up behind one another). What about my African Hunting Boots, my scent loc clothing, my Under Armor clothing, my hog calling gear, my hog dispatching knife, my 10x50 Zeiss binoculars, all of which is on order? Will they get here in time? Geez oh man! My heart rate is up so high I need a drink and a cigar to calm me down. That's another thing, 'ol Ray Atkinson says I should only drink Amarula and smoke real Cuban cigars. Do they sell those in town over there?
Peter.

Just don't ferget yer rubber boots........

Oh, and your pig call.......

and if you are bringing Cuban cigars, don't forget to bring me one.......

actually you should bring one of them cubans for me too

Ok,I am late on this...when,where and how much...room for me? Is this handcannons only,or can i bring my 600 "Carbine"too? A hunt with this "Wild Bunch" should be out of this world!

this is a march hunt in florida hogs are the menu 200 for 2 days 2 hogs any size and yes handguns only.

ALL this info is in previous post

I'm hot to trot. All I need are the dates and accomodation arrangements.
Peter.
