Preventing Tick-Borne Diseases Most of us have encountered ticks on our wilderness treks and, like mosquitoes, give them little pause for thought. Very few of us seriously consider the little pests to be much of a threat, usually we just pull the tick off and continue on our way, not realizing the potential danger the tick may present. A simple tick can carry a variety of diseases, all of which can, at the least, make you very sick and in the most serious cases even cripple or kill.

Julie and Tom's Texas Pig Hunt When Julie, my wife, over heard me talking with a hunting buddy about
going hog hunting in Texas she expressed an interest in going also.
Julie bird hunts with me all the time but never expressed an interest in
bigger game. I jumped at the chance to get her ready for our Texas hog
hunt. Since most of my rifles carry a pretty stout kick I decided to do
some research and come up with a new 'outfit' for Julie's first hog hunt.
