As a follow-up ...
Wow ... what a weekend!
First of all, I was absolutely impressed with the accommodations, the food was unbelievable, guides were spot on and the place is spectacular and just 2 hours west of Ft. Worth.
3 nights lodging, 5 days of meals and all the pigs you can bag for $650 per person ... that's a pretty good deal for those of us without hunting access. We had complete access to the whole 6500 acres.
Plots are baited every day and they offered blinds, stands, chairs ... first night, we shot out of the truck!
First group would show about 20 minutes after the sun fell behind the trees. Take the shot. Wait about an hour and another group of 10-15 would show. Take the shot. Wait about an hour and another group would show and again and again ...
The wife and I were behind the truck sitting in lawn chairs about 8 pm and heard a group at a bait hole to our left. Green light never phased the sow and 6 or 8 60lb piglets. As the wife and I were lining up a shot, we heard a ruckus behind us. Swung around and there were 5 250lbers at a bait hole to the right.
All of our chatter, movement, lights, and resettling never bothered them.
Boom!
~120yds - 308 - ACOG - Barnes 165g TSX ... she dropped in her tracks. When dressing her, we found that she was pregnant. So I am counting 5 pigs with one shot!
Just an example ... each time we went to the field we saw large groups of shooters and mounts.
And I saw the first blue quail I've seen in years.
For a relaxing get-away, arrive and hunt, I highly recommend Ranger Creek Ranch.
