to hunt or not to hunt...

[Jared D]

Well, I said I was done hunting for the year... had a really good run at the pigs this year. I should be satisfied with that? Right!?!
Well, Marty gave me an invite for one more poke at em. So I need some advice.

I start a new job in two weeks... that job requires me to pass a grueling exam to continue employment... and so I will have a 8 week period where I am able to do NOTHING but study.
I recently got married and moved. The wifey says, get outta my hair! Go play with the boys! But the gear is stowed away, the boots are cleaned and oiled, and the camo is in the attic.

So I ask you guys....

Should I bring the 22 mag or the bow?

[Satans_Chariot]

take both...

[weekender]

forget the bang bang, you have killed plenty this year so it don't matter if a hog dies, it's the experience that counts now. The bow will be more of a challange and more rewarding. Get Box to video the cold steel sliding through one. We are going this weekend. I'll try to get some footage but Spielburg I'm not.

Take the bow with a 22 side arm.

[WAHOONBOX]

TAKE ONLY THE BOW.!!!! .....IF YOU NEED TO TAKE A TUSK FOR THE TEAM......IT AIN'T THAT BIG OF A DEAL DUDE....I TAKE ONE FOR THE TEAM EVERY FRIGGING DAY HERE ON SFC !!!! TELL THE WIFE YOU NEED TO BUY SOME EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL AND GO BUY A VIDEO CAMERA!!!

BUT ....BUT......DO NOT GO HUNTING AND THEN LET ANY JOB OR EDUCATION TAKE SECOND BILLING

[Jared D]

Hmmmm..... Seems the bow is the popular choice. So be it. I will bring the bow!
It looks like Weds is the day. Sat is out for me, watching my cuz kids, and Marty has priors.

Bring a video camera and record Marty's hunt. Could carry the pistol just in case.

You have made the best choice grasshopper! You would have felt bad if I kill a couple with my longbow and you are totin a fire stick! It's the journey that counts buddy!

Leave them both at home and go all "Barta" on them with a knife.

I believe Tred has to have them pinned down by a couple of bulldogs. We don't hunt that way.
