Four tradgangers headed to Florida wednesday to battle in the swamp with the gators. Stickhead, Langhorn, Jeff Mullis Jr, and me Arrowhead80 are going to stickbow hunt gators and hogs. Hopefully pictures and stories to come and all fingers and toes will still be attached.

Rednecks won by a landslide. We had three trad hunters for gators and one guy had a crossbow and we all tagged out. Troy killed first, then Scott, then Ryan(with crossbow), then me. They all were between six and a half to eight foot. We had a ball the whole time and no animals were safe, on top of gators we managed to kill a gar and bullfrog with trad bows. If you want a rush try shooting a gator at three yards with his mouth wide open in a bad mood. They are tough animals, i shot mine the first time through the neck with a tree shark then tried to follow up with a shot between the eyes and my arrow bounced off and broke with no penetration at all it was like shooting a brick. This is a trip i would take again without question.

I'm gonna try to get them sent out tomorrow. Work has been busy since i got back. John will like them especially because there are a lot of good Kanati Quiver pictures.I have to have help from Melissa to get the pics ready. Troy, Scott, and Jeff will be here tomorrow so maybe we can combine all our pics. I don't think Florida was quite ready for the redneck crew of us. They said there has never been that much gas unleashed in their cabins without a propane leak being involved.
