How many farms and acreage do you have?
We hunt a network of farms to keep the free-range hog hunt success rates high and productive. 

This is not a pen hunt with a guaranteed shot. 

When is the best time to hunt? The best time to hunt is from 4:00 P.M-8:00 A.M. 

Hogs and coyotes are most active at night, so we primarily hunt at night.

What is the success rate? The success rate for our hunts typically ranges from 50% to 95%, contingent upon several factors, including weather conditions, the hunter's experience, and the amount of time and effort dedicated to the pursuit. This success rate is influenced by and interdependent upon the aforementioned elements. Guaranteed kill packages are 100% success rates.

Is this a fully guided hunt? Our hunts are normally semi-guided but can be fully guided if requested.

What are your setups like? 

We have set-ups with motion green lights with timed motors that feed 1-2 times a day.

All blinds are ground blinds and have two chairs.

You will need to bring a tripod or bipod for your hunt if you do not have a rental as most of our blinds are soft blinds.

Do I need night vision or thermal scope to hunt? No, you can use a traditional scope and rifle with our green and red-light systems.
