Well folks, thanks to DrTadHusseinWinslow [sic?] I went on my first official outing with the sole intention to hunt an animal. It was last Saturday. (I actually posted this but it was lost in the move of the server) We headed out to a beautiful area that must be some sort of animal highway based on all the tracks that were out there. Hog, Deer, Coyotes etc all around from what it seemed. Did not see anything but had a great time. I have never heard so many coyotes howling at once.
We were out pre dawn at around 15 degrees or so. Cold, dark morning. Here is a shot of me dressed as the hog ninja!
Found a nice tree to sit near in the fancy chair Dan brought for me. It was cold but after shoving a hand warmer in my boots I was toasty!
The river froze.
Tracks were literally everywhere. Some were like a train of animals.
Nice pics here.
I am thinking of adding a feeder out there and a camera to get some shots of whats around. There are obviously lots of animals around and what looks to be some large hogs.
Had a wonderful time for my first outing and I look forward to doing it again. I don't know what I will do with it if I get a hog but we shall see.
I may even try Deer season. Not sure I could shoot a deer. Unless it was coming after me that is. They are so cute!
Thanks again Dan!
