What do you consider a "canned" hunt? As a some have already said, if you go to TX, you will most likely be hunting over a feeder. Pigs are pretty mobile and the only reliable way to get them out of the thick stuff and into the open for a good shot is to 1) shoot them when they come to a feeder or 2) hunt them at night with a thermal. Both have their advantages, but for pure fun, a night hunt with an suppressed AR is hard to beat. You don't have to worry about the TX heat as much and when you get a sounder of 20-30 pigs in the field, you can put 5 on the ground in a hurry.
Not exactly true. Last several years hunting hogs I have not taken any over a feeder or going to one. Spot and stalk in open fields and brushy areas has produced many hogs for us. Night thermal hunting is fun, we use a handheld FLIR scout and then a LED flashlight to light them up.
Lots of fun hunts out there without having to sit a feeder.
Suppressors are great for hog hunting, I agree. Watch out for those cattle though at night.
