looking to head down to texas in early 2015, wondering if anyone else has been there for a hog hunt (preferably with a bow). just wondering about the general experience, what ranch you hunted at and when and if you saw lots of hogs. anything i need to know about licensing and bringing the meat home.
any help is much appreciate!

If I was going on a hog hunt down there it would be in a heli and using a AR 15

I went down to Texas in early May 2011 for a conference in Kemah ( near Galveston). Planned ahead for a few extra days to find a place to shoot hogs, and drive around to a monster US Cabela's ( Austin).
My search led me to Tactical Hog Control http://tacticalhogcontrol.com (http://tacticalhogcontrol.com/)
If night vision goggles, night vision scoped AR-15 types rifles,shoot as many hogs as you can per night, is what you are after......this may interest you.
They are located in Madisonville, about halfway betweeen Houston and Dallas, off I-45.
They have a two person minimum, they couldn't find another so I paid the full two person minimum. The Guide and I took 18 hogs off the farmer's land in one night. We saw between 40 and 60. Could have got more if there wasn't cattle on some fields. I had a blast, got full value for the price and helped out the farmer, by making a small dent in the vermin on his land.

Licences can be done either online or local Walmart, approx. $45 for non-resident.
