Crane Texas Hunt

Alexander Traditional · February 20, 2021, 07:45:15 AM

I just got back from Crane Texas. We had a great time,but it was really cold. We had a great group of guys. Jack from Oklahoma that goes by Papa Jack was the only one from last year. We had three guys from Virginia,and one from Iowa. I'll get some pictures up here shortly.

There were a lot of hogs that were coming up behind the house where there was a bait site,and where a rancher would spill cattle cubes. I went down one night,and there were a bunch of eleven back there. I got as close as I thought I could,and was trying to get a shot. This hog was messing around a tree just off to my left. I finally realized he was there when I heard him. He came out and started right toward me. I didn't want to shoot him in the head so I aimed off a bit. I hit him just right,he went about ten yards.

It didn't scare the rest of them off,so I went and told the rest of the guys. Robert a guy from Virginia came out and got a shot,but we never found him.

Piggies down! Sounds like y'all had a great trip.

I can't imagine they get a lot of snow in that area, so that will make this hunt extra memorable!

It sure will James. It snowed hard a couple of days. There were some of the most gorgeous sunset I have ever seen. My phone does not do them justice.

Tim and I had a really nice stalk the last day. I knew where some hogs were coming in,and since it was so cold out they were coming in all times of the day. We got over there,and came up with a game plan. I was going to stay back and try to catch them coming out while Tim stalked in. He got to 25 yards,and took a shot,and went over his back,but he was pretty stoked about the stalk.

I hope this works.

I finally got this video up that Joe sent me. It is working on my computer. Tim shot a hog with his Widow recurve,and they jumped it and it took off,and Joe got his dogs on it and took this video.
