Title: 7-22-09 Lampasas Morning Hunt - 8 Hogs (Pic Heavy) Post by: Bump on July 22, 2009, 04:53:19 pm Invited Richard (got2catchem) and his hunting partner JD down for a hunt on one of my honey holes. Showed him some new country and my style of hunting...."stick and move" :D
We kicked the dogs out just as day broke and finished with 8 hogs by 10:00 am....nothing with size but lots of action. Richard has some excellent dogs and they continued to roll out on hogs until the heat wore us out. The dogs did a lot of hunting and we covered lots of country. Garmin said we traveled 42 miles...not sure how many the dogs covered but it was a lot.

Title: Re: 7-22-09 Lampasas Morning Hunt - 8 Hogs (Pic Heavy) Post by: Bump on July 22, 2009, 05:21:17 pm MAN, yall need to leave some for the next trip haha. Good job and pretty country, it would break my heart to kill that many in one day ;D MG I know...but this place is 14,000 acres and I promise I dont put a dent in them. They flew this place with a helicopter in April and the next day I caught 7 in a 1000 acre pasture. Im under strict orders to kill...but I like to think I manage my ranches by alternating ranches and not hunting the same areas of the ranch but every few months. ;D Title: Re: 7-22-09 Lampasas Morning Hunt - 8 Hogs (Pic Heavy) Post by: TexasJ on July 22, 2009, 05:26:47 pm That's good work. Looks like the winter or fall with all the dead grass.

Have I hunted one of the pastures on that ranch? That place is a stinking honey hole! Steve Title: Re: 7-22-09 Lampasas Morning Hunt - 8 Hogs (Pic Heavy) Post by: Noah on July 22, 2009, 06:03:31 pm That's some real pretty land out there. I like catching the big toothy hogs but that kind of hunt sure is good for the dogs! Wish I had more hunts like that! Great hunt!

Rex and Richard, Good hunt. You need to show me the gates to that place, I need a few more spots to hunt. ;D Title: Re: 7-22-09 Lampasas Morning Hunt - 8 Hogs (Pic Heavy) Post by: jhy on July 22, 2009, 08:37:03 pm Great Job! Looks like hunting turned into work!:) That 42 miles was nice to do on that Ranger. Got one a couple of months ago and I dont know how I ever liked riding a fourwheeler.

Title: Re: 7-22-09 Lampasas Morning Hunt - 8 Hogs (Pic Heavy) Post by: Cull Buck on July 23, 2009, 09:04:51 am I'm not pointing any fingers but......you take savoy and you catch zero. You take Richard and you catch 8. That's very similar to my experience with the same two guys. I'm sure its just coinsidence. ;)
Great hunt! That's any awesome looking ranch. Title: Re: 7-22-09 Lampasas Morning Hunt - 8 Hogs (Pic Heavy) Post by: Cutter Bay Kennels on July 23, 2009, 09:10:07 am Great pics, and great hunt. Glad you shared the story with us.

It was a good hunt. I really enjoyed getting to see them jagds of yours getting the job done. We will set something up for down here soon. That ol hill country is different from what I am use to. I am still finding cactus splinters on me ;D It sure was nice to be able to drive to all the bays. We'll have to do it again. |
