Re: Mexico Dove Hunt 28th - 31st 2002

James, Jimmy,

I am writing this letter on behalf of the Black Creek Drilling group that participated in the dove hunt on Aug 28th of 2002. What a wonderful time. We had 16 total hunters and the accommodations were outstanding. All participants were extremely satisfied and could not express enough thanks for being treated to such a wonderful event.

The hunting was great. We killed over a thousand birds during the six hunts. We ha 331 birds killed in one afternoon. The doves were plentiful and everyone had plenty of shooting opportunities. We shot a total of 240 boxes of shells. All participants left with sore shoulders.

What a great deal it is to have 2 J Outfitters furnish the shotguns. The new Benelli's were great. We had no hassle with gun permits and no delays at the border. All we had to bring was our clothes and coolers to take the birds home in.

The lodge was absolutely great. 13 tons of AC kept everyone cool and comfortable. It was late August in Mexico and we did not have one single complaint about the heat or anyone being uncomfortable. As stated, we had 16 people at the hunt. There was more than sufficient room for sleeping arrangements and the beds were very comfortable.

We cannot say enough about the food. It was absolutely fantastic. We had been on other hunts in Mexico where the food was mediocre and the servings were small. Not this trip. All meals were great and there was more than enough for seconds and even thirds if wanted. Hats off to t he staff at the lodge.

Last but not least, the Cerveza was cold. There was plenty of cold beer to enjoy after the hunts as well as a complete bar if your desire was for something a little stronger.

We want to give 2 J Outfitters a BIG THANKS for a very successful wing shoot in Mexico. Black Creek and its customers all had a great time and are looking forward to a return visit.
