Help Wanted!

Thanks for all of the help.

I'm thinking Texas for hog hunting, February or March for the more desirable weather.

But, is there a better time for improved success? Also, what part of Texas, any specific ranches to contact?


For Javelina, leaning toward Az. …..but open to Tx also. So recommended areas for Az. and Texas. If Texas is year-round…..best time and area (ranch, ect).

Thanks again guys for all of the help. We're getting "antsy" as we've hunted very little the past 5 years! memtb

Independence ranch comes up alot. It's definitely high fence hunting as almost all Texas is private . The other is DosPulmas ranch . I've not hunted them but they do seem to be the bigger two. I'm lucky enough that my dad's buddy lives in Texas and has a small piece of land just 40 acres I can hunt anytime. I'm thinking the same time frame the January/ February. Do spray everything for ticks and chiggers . I had a couple ticks I had to remove even after spraying all my stuff down.

Best weather in Texas that is NOT regular hunting season is going to be early spring. Feb thru mid April won't be too bad, no hurricanes to spoil the hunt. Hogs are going to be best on the larger ranches that can bait them without interruption for several days/weeks. They go nocturnal very easily and become hard to hunt. There are lots of ranches that in South Tx that may offer hog/javelina hunts in the off season. I can't recommend any outfitters.
One of the coolest hog hunts is a thermal/night hunt with ARs. I have a friend that is setup to hunt thermal/jeep/tripods, etc but he doesn't guide. Just does it for fun and friends.
