There are a lot of Pig Guides but be careful. As in any business there are some real losers. Check references. Prices run from $450-$550 a day. Make sure the package includes care after harvest (some charge extra for gutting and skinning). Don't even think about the guys that charge $200 a hunt. Good luck.

The Tejon Ranch has some pig hunts. That's stretching the definition of "Central". And they are really expensive, but you'd have a quality experience.

A Outdoor Writer friend is going to ask Bill Karr the Editor of Western Outdoor News any guides he knows that are good as he has hunted that area quite a bit. Will get back to you on it.

I'm also interested in this. I'd prefer a little further north, but central coast is looking more and more likely. I'm looking pretty closely at Dash Ranch ( http://northerncaliforniahunting.com/index.html) and Rawhide West (http://www.rawhidewest.com/#!contact-us/c15n8). I'd love to hear if anyone has recommendations or any other information about either of them. Thanks, Okie John
If Montana had a standing army, a 270 Win with Federal Blue Box 130's would be the standard issue.
