Pig Gig Update

Gary Logsdon · February 10, 2010, 11:05:00 PM

Bill, I took my son over to Ft. Griffin two years ago when we were hunting the Vinson Ranch to see the ruins and The "Flats" area on the Clear Fork of the Brazos. This is the spot where Wyatt Earp supposedly met Doc Holliday for the first time. Lots of history there and on the Lambshead property, for example there are over 20 historical markers on the ranch. The official Texas Longhorn herd resides at Ft Griffin.

I have all of next week for exploring Gary. Western history is of great interest to me. I have been to Tombstone,AZ 3 times and have read a lot about Wyatt and his brothers. I have a book on his life as he told it to the writer before his death.

Kevin Bahr · February 11, 2010, 09:41:00 AM

i'm in know!...i'll update afternoon ...

Bill Kissner · February 11, 2010, 10:31:00 AM

It rained and sleeted a little during the night and is snowing pretty heavily now with about 2 inches on the ground and is expected to continue throughout the day. We are not leaving here at Eastland until it quits. Still hoping to get to camp today. It is not that far. This has to be not good weather for hog hunting. They are still forecasting better weather starting tomorrow (Fri.).

Guru just texted me.....3 inches of snow and still falling.

GLOBAL WARMING COME BACK!!!!

And Curt told me to stay warm before he left

How are the hogs gonna find the corn in that??? Maybe you could make a hogsnowman and use it as a decoy? Can you rent a snowmobile in Texas? I'll bet those animals don't know what all that is about- probably freaked them out-hence Hogdancer got a couple. They surrendered!

Only on a Wensel hunt! It'll be a new Chapter in Barry's next book. The Abominabal Hogmaster.

Ever see Biggie do a snow angel? I've got a visual.

michaelschwister · February 11, 2010, 05:28:00 PM

Hogs really should get after the corn in that wx. I am in for week 4, looks like I may opt to bring the ATV.......

wingnut · February 11, 2010, 05:45:00 PM

Well we are not far away from the GIG and we have 7" on the ground and it's coming down like we are in Michigan or something.

I'd love to be chasing hogs in this.

LOL

Maybe I'm not sorry that I can't make it this year. I would hate to drive all the way to Texas and find the same white crap that we have in Ontario.

Froggy · February 11, 2010, 09:34:00 PM

Bob Walker brought all that white stuff from "Ole Virginny"....
