It certainly seems so. Where can you go and KNOW that this isn't the case?

I just booked another hog hunt, but this time I'm going to TX. A guy in my NC whitetail camp highly recommended the place. We'll see.


Ive hunted hogs in Texas a LOT and seen all kinds of things. What to watch for down there is if all the hogs pictured are the same size and smallish...thats a put and take operation.Other thing to avoid is places offering 'unlimited ' hogs...which generally means you aren't going to see any, or somebody is trying to make a buck while you are helping clear his land of hogs ( and usually in those cases theres very few)

I hope your hunt down there is a good one...Ive run into a couple good operations for sure.
