Central Texas is in the top three areas in Texas for wild hog concentrations. The
year around agriculture provides a never-ending food resource for hogs. This
region of Texas is also covered with rivers, creeks, and private lakes. So, with the
heavy vegetation, vast agriculture, and plenty of water it's easy to see why we
have
a high hog population for Central TX Hog Hunting. We offer our clients several
choices in hunting methods. Stand hunting is a popular choice. We use elevated
tent and box blinds placed in a high traffic area with a feeder or food plot. Once
hogs start to traffic a feeder or food plot you can generally guess at a time they
might come in to feed. When Hog Hunting in Texas, we use game cameras to
establish this estimated time. If hogs come to the feeders between 7 pm and 9 pm
you will want to be in the stand at 6 pm and not leave until 10 pm or later. Hog
movement changes mainly due to weather conditions. Heat is the primary factor
when Central Texas Guided Hog Hunting. Therefore, if they have been moving in
the 70-degree temps and it rains, then it is very possible for them to move early
and visa versa if the temps spike to an unusual high. Spot and stalk is another
method we use at times of the year when hogs are active in day light hours. We
will glass large fields or travel routs. When a hog is spotted when Texas Hog
Hunting, we then stalk into range and attempt the harvest. A very exciting method
of hog hunting is hunting with dogs. Hunting hogs with dogs is a lot like any
other hunting with dogs. When the dogs find hogs, the bay dogs try to contain
them until the catch dogs get there. The catch dogs will catch the hog usually by
the ear and holds them until we get there. When we get to where the hog is
caught, we (the guides) will throw the hog and then the client can harvest the
hog. Another method we use is spot lighting. This is a fun and exciting hunt. The
clients will be on a safari rack on the back of the guide's truck. We idle around the
fields at night and look for hogs for Hog Hunting in Texas. Once hogs are found,
you can attempt the harvest. There are very few laws in Texas on hog hunting. As
a sport hunter you need only a resident or non-resident five-day small game
license. There is no bag limits set by the state of Texas. Each ranch and/or the
outfitter set all bag limits. Any legal firearm, bow & arrow, or spear/knife may be
used to harvest wild hogs. We do have recommendations on calibers though.
Hogs are very dense animals. They have very thick hide, a layer of fat and
cartilage armor, the rib cage, and then finally the vitals. I have yet to see a
common caliber too big for Texas Hog Hunting. But, .22, .243, & 25 calibers are all
on the small side. You can successfully harvest hogs with these calibers with a
well-placedearshot. We recommend that you use a .30 caliber or magnum
cartridge (i.e.7mm rem mag, 300 mag, 30/60, 30/30 ect). Things a client needs to
bring:
1. Proper clothing for the weather conditions.
2. A scope mounted light or night vision scope.
3. Legal firearm or bow
4. Bug spray (non-scented)
5. Water, snacks, day pack.
