Evenings and well into the night from a blind, unless you are hunting with thermals with a guide.

Yes, if there is natural daylight feeding activity.  Hogs will feed during the day, but normally are nocturnal. 80% of our hogs are killed at night.

 150 grain bullets

License is not required to hunt wild hogs.

Clothes suitable for the weather. Camo and ScentLok clothing suggested. Snake boots are recommended.

No, but you will need a flashlight mainly to go to and from your blind. We rent the green lens scope mounted spotlights for $50 for entire length of stay.

One you are familiar with. Large caliber, scoped rifles are commonly used. It is really an issue of shot placement.  Your guide will talk about this when you arrive. If you are from an area where night hunting is not allowed, it is highly recommended to practice shooting at night before you arrive. .223 is NOT recommended because they usually wound the hog vs. kill them.

“Don’t shoot it if you don’t plan on utilizing it.” Your guide will talk to you about this and show you our processing facility. Hogs are normally hauled back to the cleaning area where they are field-dressed, skinned and quartered. It is the hunter's responsibility to do this. You will need a cooler to keep your hog meat in once it is quartered. Also bring a good quality knife for skinning and butchering. We do have some freezer and cooler space available, but it works well to keep ice layered on the meat, which we have available on site.

Yes, the meat from hogs is excellent. In some areas it is considered a delicacy. The most common hogs, taken for meat, are young ones around 100-150 pounds.  Meat from sows of any size is usually good, but may get a bit tougher from older sows. Meat from older boars may not be good to eat; they are usually taken as a trophy only. Care must be given to the meat to preserve and keep it cool like any type of meat, but especially pork.  Wild hog has been on menus for many years; wild game cookbooks and online recipes can be helpful too.

“Get in the blind and sit until a hog comes."  Game movement charts play a big role here. Hunt as quiet and scent-free as possible and keep your equipment in good working order. A good pair of binoculars and scope mounted lights are recommended for seeing in low-light conditions.

Yes, an unguided spot n stalk can be arranged for an additional $450 for up to 4 hunters.

Not recommended at all. Hogs are very sensitive to new things, and it usually takes them a long time to come into something new.  We have had hunters bring their own bait and the results are not good. It sometimes acts more like a hog repellent.

Yes, we have ground blinds and tripods that can be set up on active spots and tripod stands near corn spinners.

If you will let us know you are interested in another type of hunt, we can make special arrangements for you. Make sure you have the correct license. Example: License for deer if hunting during deer season.  Please let us know at time of booking.

No, This is not the way we hunt here and has proven to be unproductive.

Normally we hunt hogs from a 4’ x 6’ elevated box blind large enough for two hunters. The blinds have windows, and 2 chairs. The blinds are positioned in proven hog activity areas near a corn spinner.  When we find hogs frequenting an area where we don’t have a box blind, we set up a pop-up blind or build a simple blind out of brush. Most of the archery hunting for hogs are also from tripods or pop-up blinds.
