Anyone here have any plans to do any hunting this summer?

I'm going to attempt to get a couple of hog hunts in over the next few months, but that is the extent of it this summer.

Let's hear it!

The end of August I will be bow hunting for black bear, with my 475 Linebaugh as my back up gun.

Excellent! Sounds like fun! I have three potential bear hunts in the works, but it's still a bit early......

In the meantime I will go after hogs and the occasional chipmunk......

I have been wanting to go on another hog hunt, it has been several years that I have not hunted them. I will see after my bear hunt.

George wants to go to Montana for Prong horn or another hunt.

There are a couple of good outfitters (from what I have heard) in Pennsylvania.

Nothing more then busting a bunch of rocks and steel with my new 280 WFN bullets from my new LBT mold, in the 4-5/8" 45LC NMBH. This to get ready for the Utah Spike elk season, first sat in Oct.

Any body got any load data for this bullet?

Alan

supposed to go kill a few deer here in a few days for a farmer with nuisance permit.Other then that first hunt will probally be the black bear hunt in sept

I'll do a couple adjunct pig hunts .. probably can't get out during june, but i am TRYING to get out

45LC, 45/70, 45/120, and my ARs rounds will get trotted out...

but, by the light of the moon, on the 10th of june, NOTHING beats the 257 roberts

I was invited to shoot Hogs in Texas.Not sure when I can go.Got a Bear tag for home!!!!Only a 9 year wait.

I need to hit Texas one of these days for a high-volume hog hunt. I keep theatening t do it.

With the stuff some of you are planning, I'm reluctant to mention this -

But does June squirrel season with a .22 SW Model 41 count?

When I was a kid I used to pretend I was in the jungle, and that squirrel resting high up on a limb is really a leopard...I can still get a little of that out of it...

Damn right it counts! Keep us posted, Shack!

yes it counts and it's alot of fun

I try to get in a quick couple of hours every trip up to our place in the country before getting to work on the weekend projects.

Might only be for hogs, but I almost got a shot at a yote the other morning with my bow. That would have iced the cake for me. He just found something more interesting in the woods before he got within range.

The other thing I am seing quite a few of is cotton tails, so they might be on the list sometime later this year. The best thing about hitting the field before the sun comes up is seeing all of the different critters. I have seem more deer and rabbits on our place in the past 4 months than I have seen in the past couple of years. Hopefully letting some of it grow back up over the past 10 years or so has helped to bring them back.

Hog hunt in central Florida in two weeks. I get to test the new OFF Clip-ons. I hear they work very well and are quiet and scent free. I figure with the rain they had, the mosquitos will be as big as turkeys. If it works, I won't have to wear the extra layer of a bug suit.

You couldn't be more right, Larry! I have hunted a lot in Central Florida and this time of year there will be boatloads of mosquitos. Get yourself a Thermacell -- nothing works as well to keep you mosquito free.

Well, since that's the third time I have heard that from three different people, as Mom always said, "well, if you keep hearing it from people with experience, you ought to go with it." I'll do that too. I think the wife has one around here for when she gardens.

If not, Wallmart has 'em for about 25 bucks -- worth every penny!

he got me to buy one,Watch whitworth i think he's a secret salesmen making us buy more and more supplies.Shoot i never knew i needed a 500 linebaugh but thanx to him i will have one very soon

Personally, my favorite bug repellent is Ultrathon.
