Wild hogs aren't just any old game animal – they're smart, tough, and a real challenge to hunt. These critters can weigh anywhere from 100 to over 400 pounds, with big boars sporting some serious tusks. They're primarily nocturnal, which is why we hunt them at night when they're most active. Hogs have an incredible sense of smell, so we'll be paying close attention to wind direction as we move. They're also known for their thick hide and gristle plate, which means shot placement is crucial. We'll teach you exactly where to aim for a quick, ethical kill. The best part? Hog hunting is year-round in Texas, so there's no closed season to worry about. These animals are considered invasive and destructive to local ecosystems, so by participating in this hunt, you're not just having a blast – you're also helping with population control and land conservation efforts.

Wild hogs are a real challenge here in Matagorda. These invasive pigs can weigh up to 400 pounds, though most run 100-200. They're smart, tough, and reproduce fast, which is why controlling their numbers is so important. You'll find them rooting around in fields, forests, and wetlands, usually more active at night. That's where our thermal scopes come in handy. Fall and winter are prime hunting seasons when crops are harvested and natural food is scarce. Folks love hog hunting for the adrenaline rush - these aren't your average targets. They can be aggressive if cornered, so staying alert is key. The meat's pretty good too, especially from younger pigs. Here's a local tip: Focus on water sources and wallows, especially in hot weather. Hogs need to cool off and you can often catch them there. Just remember, they've got a great sense of smell, so watch the wind direction. With some patience and the right strategy, you've got a good shot at bagging a Texas hog.
