Looks like we are heading down the 2nd week in May for two days and my daughter is lining people up to be with us, her and her husband and maybe another, sounds like a lot of people for as few whistle pigs as it sounds like is coming out. During that week I'm not sure what days as we are also heading to Montana for two days and we will go in the direction and time for weather to be the best for both states and it is a drive each day there, next state and back. The son-in-law I'm coming down with has a pistol shoot in Yakima on Saturday of that week, that's why we are only shooting 2 days in each state. He is the national champ for one division and now is trying to shoot competitively in two others so he needs it for the points so we are on the road on Friday.
If you have been out lately, any better for volume of whistle pigs?

Guns are sighted in for Idaho and Montana run, couple 22's, .17hmr, couple .223's of bolt and AR, .243 if we do rock chucks in Montana and a obligatory .22lr pistol. If I get my load situated for the 22-250 I may drop the .243 and take it, but I don't think I'll have time.
Any new update on the Whistle Pigs if they are out and about? Hopefully more than last year and I think we will have double the people shooting at the same time and we only got a few last year compared to previous years like 667 in 2.5 days for 2 of us. But it will be good to spend a couple days with family doing it.
Bob, have you shot your Rock Chuck place in a while? Wish we had time to do that with you again but this trip is Whistle Pigs for 2 days and leave. No time unfortunately as it would have been good to catch up.

I haven't been out to shoot whistle pigs in a while. Between the crazy up and weather and having a sinus infection I just haven't been out. I'm finally feeling like doing something again so I hope to get out one day this week. I haven't been out after chucks yet either. I've been talking to a friend about it. We may do that this week too, weather permitting. I did think about asking if you'd have time to get out after them while you were in Idaho. Good luck on your trip, be safe. Bob

We are still planning on being in Idaho 2 days, either Sunday and Monday 8th and 9th, or Thursday and Friday the 12th and 13th. Still watching weather between you and Montana to figure best route. Don't like it so short but we will take what we can get.
The wife and I are still looking at maybe moving to Idaho for retirement in about 3 years. My boss is going to Challis, a bit North and East of Mountain Home. He said hunting was awesome there but is guessing. What do you know? Deer, elk, ducks, geese, what they got?

I really don't know much about the Challis area, never been there. They get a little more winter than I like.
