Texas Wild Hog Hunts
Our specialty in February, March, April, May, and June is Hog Hunting. Wild Boars, Feral Hogs, Texas Boars
, Texas Wild Boars...these are all names used to describe the hogs that we hunt here in Texas. Texas has the largest Feral Hog population of any state in the nation and South Texas has the largest density
per acre. In Texas, the Feral Hog is not protected and can be hunted day or night, by any means. David and his guides have been hog hunting for years in the South Texas Brush. Whether you are on
a semi-guided or fully guided hunt, David and his guides will be glad to give you some pointers.
"When I want to hunt, I go Hog Hunting." -- David Smith
Western Safari
This is an action packed hunt that is for the "Western at Heart". Hunting is done at night on oat, peanut, and Milo
fields. "It's like riding a bucking bronco and shooting at the bad guys." February, March, April, and May hunts are available.
New for 2006: Texas Wild has invested in a generation
III night vision monocular which is giving this hunt GREAT success rates.
This fully guided 4-hour hunt is done at night with the hunters riding in the back of a pickup truck in seats. Texas Wild furnishes the
pickup with driver, gate opener, spot light, and the fields to hunt. It is recommended that each hunter wear warm clothes, bring a 12 gauge shotgun with the plug taken out, at least 30 rounds of "00"
buckshot, rain gear, flashlight, hunting knife and food & drink of choice. Price is $250/hunter plus tips with a 3 hunter minimum. We
will hunt for 4 hours, or until the hunting group has taken enough hogs for each hunter to have two hogs, which ever comes first. Parties of 3-6 works best. Call or e-mail for available dates and to
book your hunt.
Hogs with Dogs
This is one of those types of hunts that you and your friends will be talking about until...well, the next time you go on one! We have access to
approximately 50,000 acres in the counties of Atascosa, Frio, and McMullen. Seasoned hunters and novices alike will find themselves on an adrenaline high when they
harvest a Trophy Texas Wild Boar on this type of hunt.
This is a fully guided 4-5 hour hunt done at night in the South Texas Brush. Texas Wild will furnish a pickup truck with dog box, trained
hog dogs, two-way radios, dog handlers, snake-guard leggings for each hunter, and a hog stricker if you do not have one. We recommend that each hunter bring a good flash light, a sharp hunting
knife, and a side arm for personal protection. Hunt times vary with time of year and weather conditions. Price is $250/hunter plus tips
with a 3 hunter minimum. Limit of 2 hogs per hunter. 3-6 hunters work well on this hunt. Call or e-mail for available dates and to book this Texas Wild hunt.
Rifle
We have five different ranches
that are set up with blinds and feeders for hunting hogs with rifles. Each ranch has a cabin, house, or lodge for the hunters to stay. This hunt is done successfully year round. When
the weather in South Texas gets hot, most of the hog movement is at night. If you are scheduling your hunt during the Summer, come prepared to hunt at night. To aid in night hunting Texas Wild
has several feeders with hog/feed lights. New for 2006: Use a generation III night vision scope. For an additional $150 per night, my guide will
bring a rifle with night vision scope and aid you in your hunt. This is GREAT for trophy hog hunters. You can pick out the big trophy boars.
This is a semi-guided two day, two night hunt and each hunter can take two hogs. All hunting is done from elevated blinds. No stalking of
hogs is allowed on any Texas Wild properties. Texas Wild will have a guide meet your group, give you a tour of the ranch and a map
with the blinds marked. You will be on your own after that. You will need suitable transportation while on the ranch. Help in locating
downed animals and dressing harvested game is available on a pay as you go basis and should be arranged when booking this hunt. Price is $250/hunter for 3 or more hunters, $300/hunter if only 2, and $350
for a single hunter. Additional days can be added at $125/hunter/day. Most weekend hunters come in Friday afternoon in time to hunt and leave out by noon on Sunday. This allows 4 hunting sessions
and is what we call a two day, two night hunt. Call or e-mail for available dates and to book this hunt.
Bow
We have three ranches that we bow hunt. These are set up with tripods and feeders for bow hunting. Each ranch has a cabin for the hunters to stay.

Go Hog Wild
Texas Wild can combine any and all of the other hunts into a "Go Hog Wild" package to suit your needs. A great way to entertain clients, or a group of
friends to get together. We can furnish meals, lodging, and the hunts of your choice. Many hunters like to take a rifle or bow hunt and spice it up by
adding a night of "Hogs with Dogs" or the "Western Safari" hunt. I will be glad to custom fit this hunt to your request. Discounted prices can be applied to this combination hunt. Call or e-mail for
available dates, prices and to book your hunt.
