Description

   The No. 1 British Flying Training School Museum is offering a free program on at 3:30pm on August 2 to help local outdoors enthusiasts prepare for the upcoming hunting season. Hog hunting will be discussed by guide Steven Travis while Hunter Barber with Shooters Texas will update hunters about modern ammunition. Also participating will be Luke Clayton, veteran outdoor writer and radio/TV host whose column appears in the Terrell Tribune and more than 40 other newspapers.
   “This time of year, many Texans’ thoughts turn to the upcoming hunting season,” explained Patrick Hotard, executive director, “so, we thought we’d offer the community another hunting program. There will be plenty of time for questions with door prize drawings and refreshments after the program which starts at 3:30 pm.”
   Hog Hunting at Night will be Steven Travis’ topic. A native Texan and former law enforcement officer, he brings more than two decades of experience to the subject. A full time guide, ,he works with Three Curl Outfitters in Waxahachie, the largest wild hog hunting operation in central Texas.
