Lone Star Hunting Forum

james, first off thank you for your service.
Welcome aboard.
It's a pretty good drive ( 4 hours), but keep in touch, when you get back and settled in, I've got a few deer stands and I'll make sure the feeders are full.
No real monsters, but plenty good table fair with hogs and deer.
I'd be honored for you to come spend the weekend.

Welcome, I wish I could take you deer hunting But I do not have a lease, I can however take you Pheasant hunting in late December or early Jan.

Thank You For You Service To Our Country And Welcome To The LSHF.

Welcome to the LSHF sir. You're more than welcome to hunt my place in Garza county. I have a doe tag that has your name on it if you want it. Like slim said it's a 4 + hour drive to west Texas but would be honored to have you out.

Are you a Bow hunter? I see the Bow hunting smiley in your post.

A BIG thank you to all y'all for every thing you do to keep us safe

james, his an my place are less than an hour apart, surely we can fix you up on a few does, and hopefully a hog or two.

Welcome, I am about 2 hours east of Fort Hood. I don't have a lot of land, but would love to give you an opportunity to get a deer or hog.

I MIGHT (but not sure) have more deer than helo, but he's sure got more hogs than a lot of us.

I am sure you have more deer. I don't see deer every day that is for certain. Now I can probably get him a hog easier than a deer. Especially in my county, we only have certain days we can shoot does, and the bucks have to be at least 13 inches inside spread. So even though I see deer most of them I see can't be shot.

I saw three does and one hog while I was at his place the other day! He is doing something right on his land and it really shows.

Thanks John. The only problem is the does seem to know when the doe days are. I have only managed to kill one doe in the 3 years I have been there, my boys got each a one during the youth season. But the only legal one I got a chance at was during archery.

Welcome James, thanks for serving and not bailing out. I feed other folk's deer so can't help ya out.

Ya'll are good folks offering him a hunt. Makes me proud to be here.

I did 5 years in the Army as a apache mechanic, and any veteran has a special place in my heart. I spent 2 years in Fort Hood, in 2nd armor division. Let me know when you can make a hog hunt, and I will do my best to get you one. I don't have a big house, but I have a couch, recliners, and a air mattress that you are welcome to.

yeah

Just let me know and I will pm you my cell phone number. I work 7 days on in Louisiana, and 7 days off so anytime when I am off is great.

Heck you are welcome to bring the wife along if you want. My wife would not mind at all. We got a hot tub the women can relax in while we try to get you a hog.

You can even hunt from the hot tub. Here are some pics.

wow... i cant wait to get over there...

james13 wrote:wow... i cant wait to get over there...

Looking forward to having you over. Bow hunting may be a little hard on my place, but most days with a rifle you can get one. As long as texaslefty stays away J/K. I think the hogs can sense him or something.

that is one luxurious tree stand though... gotta get one for myself..lol.. my wife is geting me a H&R handirifle for my welcome home gift.... and maybe a truck. so i will definatly be there

That will work, I will be working on Christmas unless I can use my vacation.Heck yes she can hunt, I have guns she can borrow to hunt. I have a youth .243 that my wife used to kill her 225lb hog, and a .30-06.

james13 wrote:oh... and ill bring the beer.. what you drink?

Heck no need to even do that. If you feel like you need to I drink bud light, a sometimes crown and coke. I killed a bottle when texaslefty came over last week.
