I went on that hunt twice, spring of 2011 and 2012 I think. Anyway, there are great accommodations and even better food.  We caught some hogs, though not a ton in relation to how much we hunted, both years, but yes our dogs from our post oak country took a whipping in the brush country.  However, both years we went we knew each group that were bringing dogs and everyone worked well together.  The family and their employees were great hosts to both the dog teams and their own customers.  Could I catch more hogs in home area, yes.  But the hunt with a fun group of guys was what the weekends were about to me.

I could see if the circumstances were different and we knew what to expect it might have had a different outcome, BUT showing up to help with a "hog problem" with the expectations of being the only "dogger" and showing up and seeing 40+ dogs (not exaggerated) and a bunch of strangers you ve never met and to top it off basically be guiding at you and your dogs expense, customers of whom you don't know. Kinda makes for an uneasy situation.

it would be different if the owner would have said before hand, "ill have several more groups of guys out here hunting hogs too", but to be blind sided like that, u can't fault a person for packing up n going somewhere else.

Why should I trade one tyrant three thousand miles away for three thousand tyrants one mile away? An elected legislature can trample a man's rights as easily as a king can!
