Guest xjhunter Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 @gator nice. when i drive to frankfurt i can see many us-army vehicles, i think these are from the ray barracks. Do you speak a little bit german? I have some questions about hunting in canada but i dont understand all the content of the websites. So many words i've never heard.

Shaun_300 Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 Re: Wild Pig welcome to the forums xj! i think the only other member from overseas is Richyrich, he's from Scotland! from those pics, the country there looks VERY much like Ontario (Canada)! especially the one of your jeep! that looks identical to a field about 20 minutes from here, same mountains and everything!

Guest xjhunter Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 Re: Wild Pig Hi shaun, germany is a very different country, in the north its all plain (i dont know if its the right word), in the middle are some mountains 200-500 meters over the sea and in the south are the alps. And i'm in the middle. The jeep is the most popular us suv, but my is a european edition. The temperature in the summer is 25-35° Celsius and in the winter 5 till -20° Celsius, mmhh, whats that in fahrenheit? Sorry. Shoot today at 8:30am Today it was very windy and cold.

Guest bronco_mudder Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 Re: Wild Pig Hi xjhunter, If you are looking for a hunt in Canada, I would recomend checking out Davis Point Lodge and Outfitting here in Manitoba. It is owned by Dr. Peter Kalden, he is Originally from Germany and hosts many German hunters every year. There business carries a good reputation, offering hunts for moose, black bear, whitetail deer, extics, and upland game birds. To check them out go to the Manitoba Lodge and Outfitters association web site, at www.mloa.com. Then click on "find and outfitter". On the next screen click on "I want to view entire list alphabetically". Then you just have to find the Daivs Point Lodge and Outfitting listing and it will have the link for their website, and also the email address Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
