22 hours each way - Spartanburg, SC to Abilene, Texas twice a year for the past 6 years. October and February each year. October for Dove, February for Quail. Books on tape help to pass the time on the road. Tried flying the first year, I got there my shotgun didn't, it never left Spartanburg. Luckily my buddy brought 2 and let me use one of his. With all the extra fees for baggage I would never think about flying again when going hunting.
