Hi Gary, are you still shooting That Beautiful Black Tail Bow.

Glad your going, it's going to be a blast

Gary Sorensen · January 17, 2009, 01:41:00 AM

Dave-
I still have the Blacktail, but will be bringing an A&H ACS that I have been shooting for a few months now. This will be its first hunt. I appreciate you putting this together look forward to a great time.

Less than 2 weeks boys. I don't know about you but I'm getting more than a little jazzed!

Curt,

Sure would be good to have you out here with us bud. Maybe one of these years this could be your trip outside NY.

curlis · January 19, 2009, 10:09:00 PM

So let's hear from the local guys. What are the conditions like. What clothes should we be packing and such?

Guru · January 19, 2009, 10:26:00 PM

DesertDude · January 20, 2009, 01:46:00 AM

It's been in the high 70's to low 80's and sunny out here in Palm Springs area. Dave I wish I could swing this one, maybe the one in April. Good luck to all. I'll give you a call Dave later this week.

Well the weather has been just beautiful the last 2 weeks, sunny and about 75-80 :cool: , however there is rain and snow in the forecast for Fri & Sat,24th & 25th also next Wednesday the 28th, that's as far out as you can see.

So be prepared for hot, cool, cold, rain & freezing, the night time will definitely be cold.

looking at the averages for this time of year, this is what they are, High 49-51 lows 37-38.

I hope it is overcast and drizzly, the hogs like to stay out all day. if it is bright & sunny they go and hide at first light.

The first and last hours of the day are always red hot for hogs, especially big boars like to wait for the last 30min to come out.

Make sure every one brings your good binoculars, I think that's the best way to hunt hogs, spot and stock.

If it's overcast and drizzly you can go from one stock to another, assuming, after you got to 10 yards, you didn't want that one, and let it go.

You can also still hunt the oak groves and hills.

we are 10 days out, you should already be in shape, if not, do some jogging this week, the better shape your in the more ground you can cover.

Right on Kingy. Seeing hogs at Tejon is one thing. Getting to them is another and it can get very steep. Bring some layers you can pull off as it warms up in the morning and put back on as you head back at night....

Kingwouldbe · January 20, 2009, 06:19:00 PM

Kingwouldbe · January 22, 2009, 01:07:00 AM
