Any advice?

If Montana had a standing army, a 270 Win with Federal Blue Box 130's would be the standard issue.

That's a long way from Seattle. How long are you going to be in Greenville, what time of the year, and do you want a guided hunt on a deer management plantation, or DIY Euro boar hunt in mountains where you hike up and down 2,000 feet or more every day, and have to camp out just like you were in the Cascades?

There are lots of wild boar, orinally from German stock, in western NC and the upper corner of SC. The SC DNR currently has a major project to survey the populations and try to eradicate most of them in the national forests and state parks.
NC, TN, and GA are working with the SC DNR.

Chesterfield is way on the other side of the state from Greenville, in the Pee Dee sandhills. The hogs in that part of the country are feral, several generations, not as large nor with the Euro blood of the ones in Pickens and Oconee counties west of Greenville.
The folks down there sure know how to bar-be-que a hog, too!

I'm going to be there near Christmas, but it sounds like we'll have to go too far for the time alloted.
Thanks anyway.

Greenville is not 30 minutes from some great, but hard deer hunting. An hour puts you into Oconee, Laurens, Newberry and Abbeville - all full of big deer.

Take scenic Hwy 11 to 281 north, aka Whitewater Falls Road. It goes up into the WNC mountains. I live across the border in NC, but the woods all around 281 are covered in hogs. They got the woods rooted up on this side of the state line. I don't expect they pay attention to such borders, as they generally have their snouts stuck in the ground, or up somebody's butt.
