New Hog Preserve opening

gagirlgagirl Member Posts: 5,408
And I am going to be the first to hunt it. It is in the next county and will be run by 2 Firefighters, cant be bad guys then. Talked extensively with one of the owners today and I will be the first to hunt it on September 2. Really looking forward to it. It also might be a good place for any of y'all that may want to come down and hunt.

Buckey, if you dont mind me asking, what did you pay for your trip to Fl? I think these guys may be cutting themself short, but they are new so maybe not.

    Well come on down. A guy from the general side is comming down with a friend in November.

    Hog meat is good. At most clubs/preserves they will have some barred and naturallly they will taste better, but will also be smaller. I am a meat eater ( have a feeling that is opening me up to some ribbing). Trophy animals are nice but the meat is what I am after. So much better for you. Higher protein and lower in fat.

    What do you mean general side? I thought that was over long ago.[:D]
    You sure this isn't a setup? Out huntin with the rebels?[:D][:D]
    Hog would probably be good ground into sausage/stix what isn't.
    Oh and as far as the "meat eater part" goes the door is WIDE OPEN now. But I'll let ya slide this time.[:D][:D]
    Just for the record I don't eat meat.[;)](little defense here)

    Gagirl lets have some details about this hog preserve?
    Was looking at a place in Missouri with my brother to hunt but we never did.
    Like to hear about this one in Georgia even though it's quite a ways away from where I live.[:(]

    Hunter...

    It is a preserve run by a couple local FF. They dont have all their fees set right now, but for a trophy hog it will be $275. He said he would let me know what they will be charging for a non trophy and meat hogs. They will be baseing the trophy on the cutters. Right now he said they have a few in there that have 3-4 inch cutters which is pretty nice. Average hog size is 225-275 lbs again pretty decent sized hogs. Said there were some that were 300+.I will let you know about the set up after I go out there. The one thing I liked is that when they have it set, from what Shennen said if you pay the $275 and dont get one on your first day then you can come back on the second day and there wont be an additional fee. Only problem will be them working around their real jobs schedule on getting someone in on the second day.

    I have someone comming down for a hunt in November. I am going to take them out there and to the place I normally hunt too. I think they will be the better judge on if they like comming south to hunt since I am used to this area.

    ben should have been around Sat. evening I met a hot hot way outta my league hot young lady. Unintentionally of course. Dark complexsion, long dark hair, deep blue eyes, naturally pretty no make up needed. I caught her lookin a couple times, she caught me. So I pulled a taco when the bartender came around I had her take the young lady a drink. So she came over and introduced herself. Told me where she worked and to come up and see her sometime. Could have been the $50s on the table seein how she is only like 23-25 and I'm 33 I would guess that would be the case.....

    So I might just go up there and have a drink...with a chaperon of course.
