Had a week off for Spring break and got to fly home to CA and try my luck at some hogs. What was supposed to be a four day hunt turned into a 2 day hunt but I had a great time with my Dad and really enjoyed the R&R.

I want to really thank FerretWyo for giving me pointers on how to hunt this place. He was very kind in sharing his knowledge and i really appreciated it. Thank you.

Unfortunately because of our limited time I wasnt able to really give the pigs a run for their money.

This was on Vandenberg AFB

My truck all loaded up & my trusty pup!



First Day down near the beach. Had great weather the whole time.


We covered a lot of ground and checked all these little oak bottoms for bedded pigs. Found lots of rooting but no pigs


then we climbed to some higher country

Sweet looking country!    

Beautiful country! That's a lot different than the hog habitat we have!

That yellow mustard weed was over 6 feet tall making it tough to glass
 
 
Really spectacular though

   

And here is my bow perched along side me and some binos i got from BowhunterGA here on the classifieds. Top notch guy if you get a chance to deal with him.
   

All in all I always have a great time hunting whether successful or not. The pops and i will return!

   

That was a very nice report. Good photos too. Thanks for taking the time to include your photos with your report and sharing them.

Very cool, nice pics.

Looks like you had a great time!! Wonderful pics!      

 
Thanks for sharing, Looks like a great trip.

Nothing like hunting with Pops.

We have the same bread of Dog.    WHV!

I love hunting with my boys.  I do not care if I am even armed. As much fun as you had, your dad made memories you cannot imagine.
Are you a midn?
VA de berg is a great place

Randy is top notch!

Glad you had a great time with your dad, good luck on your return!

Those pictures make me home sick for the central coast. Thanks.

Looks like some beautiful country.  Your set up looks good too.  Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing your hunt with your Dad.
( Beautiful Country )  

No need for a kill in country like that. Awesome pics. That Ferret is an encyclopedia on hunting all over the country and will set you straight.

Thats beautiful country! is that private land?
What  was your setup for this hunt?

Excellent thread.  That is the type of country that I used to love to hunt before the foot amputation.  I am kinda jealous.

Thank you for looking. I've gotten a lot of enjoyment out of looking at other members' hunt pictures so I felt obligated to return the favor.

Notice the ocean in the background?
     

We got access to Vandenberg Air Force Base because i am a midn at the naval academy. I was really honored to be able to hunt there among the other servicemen.

Bayhunter, my bow is a 60# predator hunter and the arrows are tapered cedars I made last month with some Stos 160's out front.
 

Again thanks for looking.

Looks like a great hunt.  Glad you were able to spend it with your dad.  Thanks for sharing.  Good luck at the Academy.

Looks like you and your dad had a great hunt in some beautiful country  

California Hogs for the most part are a timing thing (at least where I hunt)... they are constantly on the move but its sure fun to try and catch them coming thru... There are some good deer on that land. Some of my customers have shown me some dandy pictures!!!
