As some of y'all may have heard, Monty's little boy has a heart condition and he may have to sale out of a sport they both love. I understand why and everything because he's that kind of a feller. Family first, always. Just curious to see who would be interested in a benefit hunt. Now, I will be the first to admit I've neve put one on nor do I really know how but I'd try my damnedest to put one together with some help if we could get a good one together. Any feed back will be appreciated. Input, comments, I'll take anything. Hell if someone wants to put one together and needs help I would do that too. I just think this is something our dogging community and family can do to help out a brother in need. Let me know what y'all think and we will go from there. Also want to say thank you to Monty for allowing me to hunt with him off and on the past several years, never a dull moment for sure!

bad time of year for a lot of people to do a hunt. I would be more than willing to do the hunt that monty puts on in the winter and donate all my entry and hogs to a benefit. It may not help them now but come winter im sure it would be just as appreciated.

Only problem I can think of with having it this winter is deer season for some people. I'm all about hunting wen it's cold but it's hard to steer around deer hunters for me.

Can someone that knows in some detail (not every little detail, the basics) what the situation is PM me? I'd love to try and help if I can in a way I know how but I'd need some more info on what exactly's going on. Sending MANY positive thoughts to the Bennet family!

I could get my team and some guys that are not on the board to get a few teams togather to hunt it, I think its a great idea, it may be hot right now but when it comes to this kind of situation I know I could still get about 3 or 4 teams to enter, pm me and let me know

I think this time of the year...your better off having just a 1 nite hunt....maybe a 12 hour type deal.
I know Monty's up in Paradise but a more centrally located weigh in would bring more teams. I believe there is a but Station in Corsicanna or Ennis. That would be an ideal weigh in spot....IMO.

I've got a really nice yearling colt that I'd donate to raffle if there would be any interest.

I wouldn't mind a centrally located weigh in but of so I think a 24 hour hunt would be better. Anyone who has put on a hunt and would like to help out and get me pointed in the right direction pm me. Like I said ive never done anything like this so I'm kinda blind with most everything and I'd definetely want it all to go smoothly.

I just don't think 24 hours will work. No one is gonna hunt from 10am-6pm anyway probably. Just too hot.
Need to keep the entry fees low as well. You would rather have a lot of teams, you will make good money on the hogs that way.

A 24hr hunt in October would be great! The weigh I'm should just be a bills where it is all the time makes it allot easier for everyone... Everyone knows where it's at and bill has experience with these type of things..

If all else fails why don't we do this.... Allot of kill hogs and leave them to lay I'm on of them... Let all for the month tie our hogs and donate them... Note not all have a trailer but I'm sure we all know someone who does... I have a small one and can help out.. So what saying is for the month of October let keep our hogs live and donate them... I'm sure we can work something out at the buyers to make the checks out to Monty's family... Or of Monty agrees we can take them to his pen and when he has a bunch he can sell them

Any reason why we cant accept team money now, start selling shirts now, start raffles now, and do the hunt right after deer season? You could present him with donations and proceeds now, along with cash from hog sale after the hunt. Get with local vendors at Uncle Earls (March 2014)and see if the would be willing to help donate a portion of proceeds.
Most hospitals take an initial down payment and then partial payments until complete.
