I just talked to Ken. He's waiting for your call.
You might want to talk to him about the deer hunt. Lots of BIG bucks out there. I Just called Ken, he sounds like the real deal. I really appreciate that tip!

I have also hunted with Ken several times. Lots of hogs and great lodging. A real deal for the price.

Is pig hunting worth a crap in early May? Been getting mixed answers to that one..... Hoglets don't have access to a calendar. If it's cold they come in before daylight and at dark-thirty. If its moderate, they come in before daylight and at dark-thirty. If its 115 degrees F. at 8 PM on June 21st, they come in before daylight and at dark-thirty. If there is corn or anything edible they will come in all hours of the night. If you are in the right place at the right time, Voila!! One can perforate a porker. That simple. I killem' monthlhy, (sometimes bi-monthly). Biggest thing is how often the area in which you are set up has been hunted recently (unless its put-n-taek, behind a high fence). recent volunteers........ JAPPFT, GWB

Invest in a decent "Kill Light" and then you can nail the buggers when they come in after dark......... I'm currently using the Wicked Light 403 with universal mount, variable rheostat and telescoping lens. Good to 400 yds. One can avail oneself of this for $140 to $250 depending on the kit you buy......... http://www.allpredatorcalls.com/wic...ator-hog-night-hunting-kit-wuth-red-led/JAPPFT GWB

And we kill them year round here at the Ranch, but they do start to get nocturnal when it gets too damn hot here in TX. And if course, cool weather is better to prevent meat spoilage. Another vote for the Nail Ranch. They are only about 60 miles from our Home Ranch, and have a really good reputation, here. Ted Nugent used to do quite a bit of hunting there. On the big Hill Country Ranch I manage down on the Colorado River, I saw over a 100 hogs yesterday morning feeding on my newly planted wheat. Also about 60 deer, so I was not paying much attention to the hogs. Bucks are just starting to rut here, so they had my undivided attention.

Forgot to mention, I've got a friend that flies helicopters for a big Ranch just north of us up by the famous 6666 or 4 Sixes Ranch. They do some really fun Helicopter Hunts for Feral Hogs. It ain't cheap, but it's just about as much fun as you can legally have. It's around $800 to $1000 bucks per hour, depending if you use your own AR15, or you use one of there Class 3 Weapons! I can get his phone # if your interested.

Even got a concrete swimmin' pool that Ellie Mae might envy! Perfect for coolin' down, or takin' a whore-bath with a tee shirt after 4 or five days of sweatin' like a politician telling the truth. CI, I've become a wuss in my old age....... Shot three hoglets last week. Only one was DRT. I've decided after 40+ years of tracking the suckers after dark on my hands and knees, with a pistol in one hand and a light in the other, the odds of me and a bad mofo boar coming face to face are stacking up. So no, I've not had the pleasure of sticking one. However, it is a sharp SOB. No doubt about it. Best, GWB
