Welcome to the hunting section

I figured since its off season for most hunting it would be a good idea to start a hunting section for you guys, since alot of you do hunt. I know this is time of year i gather info and set trips and everything and figured it would be easier to have a hunting section here at crappie.com then to have to go look elsewhere or also to give you another option to look for hunting... ill he your moderator on this board so any ideas or suggestions you have to make this part of forum better, feel free to shoot me a pm...

thanks

Thanks for taking this job! I do a lot of deer and duck hunting. Used to turkey hunt till it got in the way of crappie fishing...

what does everybody hunt?

Hey Pstone, I have some friends in Leland that I hunt with. You know anybody from over that way?

Thanks, this will be a good addition to the site.

We had over 3000 head of Elk within 5 miles from my house. I live in Idaho those of you that are planning a Elk hunt should try Idaho. My rancher friend right now has 800 head on his property. Units 39, 43 and 45 are good huntig units. My wife is 64 and killed her first Elk last year. My friend told me that there were 25 Bull Elk taken off his ranch last year.

John what a great idea. CONGRATULATIONS We had over 3000 head of Elk within 5 miles from my house. I live in Idaho those of you that are planning a Elk hunt should try Idaho.

Cool! I don't do much hunting but duck hunting but would love to read the reports of other hunters until the fall!

Thanks for the forum!

Can't say that I do. Sorry.

Do you think it would be a good idea to do some "trading" of hunts here? For instance, I have access to some awesome wild hog hunting down in my parts. I would be willing to trade for a good deer bowhunt in Kansas? Anyone think this would work?

i think it would be a good idea if people want to start a thread for it with what kind of hunt they have to offer and what there looking for and a time ill sticky it

Bobberwatcher that is a great idea as I love to look at that kind of stuff.I have never done a trade like that but you never know.Idea's like that I think will set this forum in motion as all the other idea's.

Bobberwatcher, I and a couple of buddies were looking at going to OK. for some Bow Hog Hunting. Do you know of a place we might be able to go local? Maybe even no charge?

I know of one place, but I will need to talk to the leasee's and figure out some details. The hogs are dramatically effecting their deer hunting. The only charge you might occur is a fine if you miss one! I'll try to get some details around all this for you guys.

I guess you call it hunting. I'll sit in the woods and watch the doe run by, waiting for that buck. I replaced the fmj bullets with hard lead for my sks 7.62x39. I did get 2 doe on my mom's place in Oakland,MS before she sold it. That was some 8 years ago.
Most of my time is spent reloading .38spl. for flutterby and I to spend time at the gun range. We'll shot for hours for 5.50 each. Then spend the next week reloading some 500 to 1,000 rounds for the next visite. I mould 120 gr. roundnose bullets along with a bunch of different sinkers.
So, do any of you reload? Should we start a thread on reloading?
