Any of you guys working in the oilfield ? Not just on the rigs but any aspect of oilfield work. Never met many coon hunters on the rigs.

Dad worked for Haliburton back in the 80's. Mostly on a cement pump truck. He's president of Flora Coon Club in Flora, Illinois. Get around Clay and Wayne counties in IL and you'll find several coonhunters who work in the oilfield.

My little brother worked on a pulling unit for a while. Both the other guys on his truck are coonhunters.

Got another buddy who does perforation.

Never worked in Illionois, mainly worked in pa, Wva , and ky. I'm sure I've seen your dad, as I have traveled to the flora club several times over the past years.
