God bless you and thank-you for your service. Sorry about your wife, maybe one day you will find someone who lives up to their wedding vows. Keep your chin up and your head down.

Sorry to hear about the wife, stay safe and thanks for your service

Thanks for serving our country and sorry to hear about your pending divorce. Sometimes life sucks but everything does happen for a reason. Keep your chin up and life will get better.

Maybe you can get a late spike/doe hunt in January

That would be nice!! How would i do that? I should be back around the 20th sometime...

Get with Father of Four. He runs Hunting With Soldiers, an organization that gives free hunts to servicemen and women as well as veterans, and a very nice guy. You can take a deer or a hog, or 2 hogs, or a deer and a hog, or 2 hogs. LOL The dude even bought a little house to put servicemen/women up in while you're there and fixed it up himself....HELL OF A GUY! If I ever win the lottery, he's winning the lottery with me.

I would love that but i cant invite myself

Thank you for your service. Give me a shout when you get back and well see what we can do.

I just invited you. LOL

Sorry to hear about your wife, and thanks for you service also. If you are looking to kill a hog, I may be able to hook you up also. Send me a pm when you get back, and we can work out a date. Of course no charge, and you can stay in my house.

Can't promise a hog, but the other soldier 1Fowlhunter got a nice one, and here is a pic for you.

Sorry to hear about your stress man but if you keep your chin up. Thank you for doing what you do!

Keep on Keepin on! Come back safe, Steven

I would love to take care of some hogs!!! I would love to stock my frezzer with some good sausage...man i havent had any good food in over a year!!! HAHA

Sorry about your mis fortune. Thanks for your service also. Be safe out there and get home safely. I have found out that folks on this forum are some of the best around.

TH, sorry to hear about your wife. Definitely get with Fo4 when you return; I'm heading down this coming weekend (6-9) and I'll do my best to leave some pork for ya.

Great PM returned.

First of all thanks a lot for your service bud. We all appreciate what your doing. And sorry about the divorce she just dosent realize what she gave up. You seem like a great guy just holding up his end of the bargain. Stay strong, safe and get your arse back to Texas. Good luck in the future bud.

Give me a PM when you get back. I am giving away free hog hunts for active duty and I'll get you in one.

That he can....Brad is ONE HELL OF A GUY TOO, as well as his Wife Missy....If you can get with him on a date you'll have a blast....

You're not divorcing the inlaws, just their daughter...Maybe you are still okay there and get to hunt some.....
No words I say can calm the frenzy but you must maintain and be the better person than she was.
Thank you for your service in the military, so I may stay free.

Thank you for your service. I am sorry to here about your situation back home. Please remember God works in funny ways. I wish you a safe return.
Mike

x2 on the inlaws..
if she is truly the cheater, they may not think too highly of her anyway.

besides, when is she even going to ask if you are still hunting out there...

Thanks Criss, I hope I can get him one as easy as I yours. We had a blast and am looking forward to having you out again for another hog.

Sorry about the wife, but wanted to say Thanks for your service. Keep your head clear, your butt down and be safe.

I think Ryan is trying to plan a deer hunt...maybe we could plan for then? or I'm always up for a midget doe hunt

Howdy and Thanks for your service.
Please get ahold of me or FOF and let us know when you will be back , I am extending the invite to come and hunt with us here at the HWS program seeing as how FOF saw fit to make me number 2 guy, only 2 of us...lol
Anyway shoot me or him a message and let us know !

Get yourself back to Texas young man. Sounds like you got friends here that are waiting to entertain you and help relieve some of that stress you are suffering from. Thanks and God Bless you for your service.

I only want to take 2 does this year, and my niece is going to try for her first. That only leaves 2 deer (one buck, and one doe) for me, Missy, Devin, and Dylan to split. Wish I had more deer, but I do have hogs and would be glad to have you take all you can get.

Since we only eat what we kill, this year is going to be hard. Two deer won't last long. Going to be eating lots of hog this year.

hey bud we appreciate everything yall do for us! Hit me up when you get back and we will bust some ducks if you would like

young man let me first thank you for the job you are doing on our behalf , sorry to hear about your mishaps i see you are from canton, when you get back give me a e mail and i would be glad to take you on a weekend hog hunt or deer if you make it back in time a deer hunt, you could be a guess hunter with me on my lease . it would be a free range hunt and could not make any kill promises , but some good hogs have been killed and trapped and i took a nice 8 point that would have been a nine broke brow tine with a 16 inche spread . i live in hughes springs if you know were that is about 70 miles from tyler not to far at all from canton send me a pm when you get home or feel free to stay in touch would love to talk hunting any time you got a internet connetion keep you,re head down and get back to canton and texas safe

I am so blessed to have such good friends like all yall!! Everyone keep me posted and i cant wait to get home!!!

Texas Hunter, You have been officially INVITED. Bring your Gun and your will to shoot something. Sorry to hear about the trouble your going thru but like you said, Everything happens for a reason my Friend. Been there and Done that. If it were not for my First Wife leaving me, I would not have found the most Wonderful Woman in the World. Good luck and look forward to meeting you in Person. Dont worry about blankets or covers, we got you there along with a bed and some good TV too lol. Get home Safe is the Payment you have to pay though.

Thank all you guys for everything!! I cant wait to see each and every one of yall!!

Well put and +1 from me. Keep your head in the game and come home safe. There is always pig hunting if you miss deer season.

Thanks for your service and sorry about your situation.

God bless you and all the men and women you serve with. You are what makes this country such a great place for us to live in.

Thank you!

Hey buddy when you get home PM me and if you can handle the 17 mile drive over to Grand Saline we will put a hurtin on some swine. I hunt the bottoms and have as many pigs as anybody around

Thanks for all you do buddy! hope you can get a hunt in when you get back, you deserve it. God Bless and stay safe

TJF

Sry to hear, keep a positve attitude and come back safe, then u can find u a new better half!!

Thanks everyone once again for the support!! And i hope to see all of yall when i get back!!

I live at lake fork, if u like to fish give me a call, I'm a full time bass guide, we can go out for a bit!

Brian, it's HER loss and I'll leave it at that. We've got 1900 acres in East Texas and every hog out there needs a blast cap to the a$$.

Give me a shout when you get back. We'd be happy to take you out there. Stay safe!

Ill be there!!
And thank yall so much for everything!!!

Cant wait to fill my freezers

Does anyone on THF have MLD or LAMPS permits they could dontate? This would accomplish a late season hunt for this young man. I offered a deer tag to bulldawg on his active duty hunt, so hopefully someone doesn't mind parting with one. It would be a nice gesture.

I missed page two of the thread. Man there are some outstanding individuals on THF!

x2

Seems like there are some great folks on this site!!

I went through the same $h!t a year ago with my ex. I was in Baghdad all of 2008 and she couldn't handle being home with all the extra money either. You keep your head up and go see Gordon and Mike... you'll feel all better!

Mike... tell Gordon to make me the #3 guy so you can be in the middle... where you like it, lol.

hey bud thanks for doin what you do for me and all of your fellow TEXANS. be safe and get home, texas misses ya. don't stress bout stuff you can't control. good news is you will be back in time for the SPLIT TAIL SEASON. find you a trophy. best of luck to you.
