Title: Soldier's Hunt
Post by: Mike on December 19, 2009, 08:34:59 pm
Chris, Mandi and I had the privledge to take out two of our country's finest on hunt this weekend. Raymond and Matt spent 15 months in Iraq and are now stationed in Fort Hood. Raymond is from Houston and Matt from Pennsylvania... neither had been on a hog hunt with dogs before. Also along on the hunt was Raymond's Dad, Raymond Sr. and his 5 year old son. I just picked up two new ranches to hunt up in Leon County and figured this would be the best place to take them. We ended up with 3 hogs, a sow last night and a boar and a sow today. They had a blast and are ready to go again. We got all the hogs cleaned and filled up the 3 coolers they brought with fresh pork.

It was an honor to take these gentlemen on this hunt... and guys, if y'all read this, thank you again for your service to this great country!

Mike, Chris, and Mandy,

I just wanted to take a minute and thank you guys for taking us on a great hunt. We all enjoyed it very much are definitely looking foward to going again. I also want to thank you for supporting us and the rest of the troops. That shows a lot of character!! To everyone out there who responded to Mike's post you are quite welcome, thank you for supporting us. I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas. Here is the link to my first hogdoggin experience, it was at night so you can't see much until we get on the hog.
