LSBA Javelina Hunt

[Tomme]

The LSBA hunt committee is now taking reservations for first ever modern era LSBA Fellowship Javelina hunt. Here's the details.


Where: First Point Bowhunting (Mike and Nancy Palmer's place)- near Uvalde Texas.


When: February 22-24 (noon on Friday through noon on Sunday).


Cost: $150 total for the two day hunt. Thanks to the generosity of Mike and Nancy kids 16 and under hunt free on this hunt (In other words, a child can hunt free with their paying parent).

Bag Limit: One javelina. I believe we are also allowed a hog, but am checking on this and will post back later.


Reservations are limited and you must be an LSBA member to come on this hunt. To insure a spot send your $150 deposit to


LSBA
c/o Tomme R. Actkinson
159 Copano Ridge
Rockport, TX 78382


PLEASE NOTE! Deposits are non-refundable. In the event that you cannot make the hunt, you may sell your spot to another LSBA member. Please pay by mail as I will use earliest postmark in case of ties.

This hunt should be a lot of fun and will be a real opportunity to fill that javelina spot on your trophy room wall.



MANY THANKS TO THE PALMERS AND FIRST POINT FOR MAKING THIS HUNT POSSIBLE!

I am very interested. Any chance my girlfriend can come along and hunt also? She is not an LSBA member though.

Jake -

I would probably say no. I know last year I had a couple buddies that wanted to go Turkey hunting with us on Grunts and Gobblers. All I did was get them to sign up.

I would recommend just getting her signed up and then you should not have to worry about anything.

Tomme - Is is still a "Deposit" if the amount is for the whole hunt??? HE HE HE :)

[Graybow]

Well, I was gettin on here to ask about this very hunt! lol Good timing Tomme! How many spots will be available?

[Tomme]

Jake, I'm sorry, but this is a member's only hunt. For only $25 she can become a member, and then she's good to go.

Graybow we have 10 slots for the hunt. We might be able to stretch it to 12 and I will check that on my hunt this week, but think of it as 10.

Notice has also gone out on the Grunts and Gobbles and I'll post it here next week, but thought I'd put up the javelina hunt first.

[jake-1024]

Thanks for the info Tomme. It's for a good cause anyways so she may soon be a member also. I have to talk to my manager and try to get that weekend off. If so I will at least send my deposit in soon.

[Tomme]

Sounds good Jake. Should be a good and productive hunt as we will only have a small number of hunters on a 5,000 (?) acre ranch.

[Videographer]

Tomme, will the "youth" hunters lodging also be free?

[Chunky]

This sounds like fun, and I enjoy the fellowship, but with limited spots I think I will pass and let others have a chance. It is turns out that we don't get ten....which I seriously doubt will be a problem...I would reconsider.

Good luck to all and I expect some stories.

[Videographer]

Chunky....uhmm I might ask you to go....but I'll PM ya :)

[kellyg]

I KNEW it was going to be that weekend.....

[Videographer]

Ok my better half will take one of the spots along with my daughter & son.

[Hot4huntin]

Sounds like a fun hunt!! BIG THANKS to Mike and Nancy Palmer!

Coach, don't forget to get Melissa signed up as an LSBA member before sending your deposit in to Tomme. It can be done by regular mail, credit card or Paypal! Thanks!

[Videographer]

Dena how much to add a family membership onto what I already got?

[tinman]

This should be a good hunt...wonder if these dates would work for my brother-in-law? We'd probably have to bail Sunday AM so he could get back to the metromess for work Sunday night...hmmm...I'll get back with you Tomme.

How many spots are taken so far?

[Tomme]

I was at First Point deer hunting on Jan 2-6. Saw bucks, but no chance at a shooter. I was OVERRUN by javelina. Mike won't let people shoot them in deer season and in my pasture I was seeing groups of 3-5 almost every time I went out. Biggest group had 11 in it. Some were really BIG!

Joey still spots available, but don't wait too long.

[Videographer]

Coach, don't forget to get Melissa signed up as an LSBA member before sending your deposit in to Tomme. It can be done by regular mail, credit card or Paypal! Thanks!

Dena, how much will it be to add a Family membership to what I already got. From what I remember I got like 3 or 4 years something like that. What would it cost me to upgrade my membership to a family membership? :think:

[Hot4huntin]

PM sent, Coach! Thanks!

[Bweger]

Do they have accomadations or are we staying in a hotel? Do we bring all our own food as well? Sorry not familiar with First Point

First Point has two mobile homes set up with about five bedrooms with bunkbeds in them but you need to bring your own bedding, pillows, etc. They have kitchens like any mobile home but you have to bring your own food.

The set up is nothing fancy but it keeps from paying for a hotel. When I was there a couple of people brought their own trailers to stay in.

[Tomme]

Based on the posts here and on TBH I believe that this hunt is full. If you haven't sent in your money yet, you can try, but you may end up on the standby list.

Eric just what Tvc said. It's not fancy but better than a lot of day leases as they do mop and sweep in between hunting groups. In addition to the kitchens they have several bar-b-q pits as well.

[Tomme]

I got in 4 more today. Based on what I have the list includes

1. Wes Phipps
2. Thomas Hidroga
3. Adam Hidrogo
4. Brian Kee
5. Melissa Williams (and daughter Alexis)
6. Brad Adams
7. Wes Mitchell
8. William Paine
9. Damon Johnson
10. Jeffrey Clevenger

We might have two extra spots open up, but about all I can promise for sure right now is a spot on the standby list as this hunt is full.

[Eric4x4]

Maybe next time hope everyone has a great hunt.

[Videographer]

Wish I was going to be able to attend this.

Tomme, PM sent to you.

[Josh23tx]
