SmilinEd 364 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Thought crossed my mind about doing a hunting vacation.. I see Texas has many animals that you can hunt that have no bag limits/no season Armadillos Bobcats Coyotes Flying squirrels Frogs Ground squirrels Mountain lions Porcupines Prairie dogs Rabbits Turtles Quote Link to post Share on other sites
YOT 3,743 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 I always take a vacation during deer season. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spikester 93 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 What about hogs in Texas, they got a bunch of them. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
XD45 7,124 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Wild hogs do massive damage. We're going on vaca to TX this Oct and I'm going to take some hogs while we're there. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
storm6490 2,768 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Same here, vacation every november for deer and elk. If I were going to take a hunting vacation that was set up by someone else, I would go for a night vision helicopter hog hunt in Texas. No shit! It's a real thing! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mancat 2,368 Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) Yep, hunting season for me is 10 days off. Might go home early if I use up my tags, but I usually stick around and hunt with my dad or our camp partners or do scouting - just don't carry a rifle at that point. Bring the dirt bike and explore. There's always something to do. A friend of mine does an annual prairie dog trip to Montana early summer, I would like to do that some time. Wife's family is over there now and I plan to make it happen next time I'm over. I did some scouting there last month and found some private property loaded with dogs and got some phone numbers to call. Edited July 17, 2015 by mancat 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mancat 2,368 Posted July 18, 2015 Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 personally I think that's getting on the sick side, but I can't say it wasn't effective Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobRez 1,895 Posted July 18, 2015 Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 The only time I take off of work is for Hunting, so yeah, my vacation IS hunting.......why travel to kill squirrels and frogs????? Pretty sure they are everywhere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SmilinEd 364 Posted July 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2015 The only time I take off of work is for Hunting, so yeah, my vacation IS hunting.......why travel to kill squirrels and frogs????? Pretty sure they are everywhere. Cuz a whitetail hunt in Montana will cost you 3.5k- 7k with guides, lodging, renting 4 wheelers,processing fees, tips, taxidermy, etc,etc,etc.... I can take a whitetail in my own backyard, Elk a little farther east shooting feral hogs in Texas should be a whole lot less, might even have some ranchers appreciate having you there. Plus a person wouldnt have the pressure of filling a tag at those prices and actually enjoy the scenery. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
