Side Arm??

Wondering if anyone carries a side arm(Pistol) while bow hunting in a tree or ground blind.. I didnt until last night.. Went to the ranch Monday for a week of pig hunting and shot one and went looking for her and stumbled apon a sal with about 10 piglets.. She didnt turn and run away she ran at me.. Quite scary but after that episode the trusty .45 will be on my hip.. Anyone ever had a reason to carry???

Re: Side Arm??

During hog hunting and a few others ....it is ok....and I always carry...just remember the law on Archery season...

Only the archery and crossbow equipment prescribed in this section may be used for taking game animals or game birds. Crossbows are not lawful for taking migratory game birds. The prescribed archery and crossbow equipment may be used during any general open season. Archery and crossbow equipment may not be used to hunt deer during the Muzzleloader-Only Deer Season. It is unlawful to be in possession of a firearm while hunting with a broadhead HUNTING point during the Archery-Only season, except a person licensed to carry a concealed handgun in Texas may carry a concealed handgun. NOTE: A firearm may be possessed in camp, in a motor vehicle, or while hunting lawful game other than whitetail or mule deer and turkey (e.g., exotics, feral hogs, squirrels).
