Tracking Tips & Terrain

Pottsboro's landscape is perfect for hog hunting - we're talking dense brush, creek bottoms, and open fields. You'll need to stay sharp and move quiet. We use a mix of spot-and-stalk and stand hunting, depending on the day's conditions. Our thermal scopes give us an edge for night hunts, letting you see those sneaky pigs in the dark. Wear boots that can handle mud and bring clothes that'll blend in - these hogs have sharp eyes and even sharper noses.

Inside the Hunt

Hog hunting isn't like deer or turkey - these critters are smart, tough, and always on the move. We'll teach you to look for signs like rooted-up ground, wallows, and game trails. When we spot a sounder (that's a group of hogs), it's all about the wind and staying hidden. Our guides are pros at calling the shots - when to move, when to freeze, and when to take that perfect shot. It's a rush like no other when you've got a big boar in your sights.

Target Game Breakdown

Wild hogs are the stars of this show, and boy, are they something else. These aren't your grandpa's farm pigs - we're talking about feral swine that can weigh up to 400 pounds. They're built like tanks, with thick shields around their vitals that can stop a weak shot cold. Hogs are active year-round, but we love hunting them in the cooler months when they're more active during the day.

What makes hog hunting so addictive? For one, they're challenging. These animals have keen senses and learn fast. Hit one pig, and the whole sounder might disappear for days. But when you outsmart them, it's incredibly satisfying. Plus, they're destructive critters - by hunting them, you're helping local farmers and the ecosystem.

Don't underestimate these beasts. They can run up to 30 mph in short bursts and have been known to charge hunters if cornered. That's why we emphasize safety and proper shot placement. A well-placed shot not only ensures a clean kill but keeps everyone safe.

Hunter Highlights

Our hunters come back with some wild tales. Like Jim from Dallas, who tracked a massive boar for hours before finally getting his shot at sunset. Or Sarah, who came out for her first hunt and ended up bagging two hogs in one day. The look on a hunter's face when they drag out their first pig - that never gets old.

What to Pack

Bring your own rifle if you've got one, but we've got loaners if you need. Ammo's on you - we recommend .308 or 30-06 for knockdown power. Don't forget your hunting license and a good pair of boots. Camo's a must, and layers are smart 'cause Texas weather can turn on a dime. We'll provide the rest, including field dressing gear and a place to clean your kill.

After the Hunt

Once the adrenaline wears off, you'll appreciate that comfy bed we've got waiting for you. Swap stories with your fellow hunters over a cold one, and get ready for some good eating. If you want, we can hook you up with a local processor to turn your hog into some damn fine sausage or bacon.

Conservation Chat

Let's talk conservation for a sec. Hog hunting isn't just fun - it's necessary. These animals tear up crops, push out native species, and breed like crazy. By hunting them, you're part of the solution to a serious ecological problem. It's a win-win: you get an exciting hunt, and the land gets a break from these destructive critters.

Why Hunters Keep Coming Back

Folks come back to us year after year, and it's not just for the hunting. It's the whole package - the thrill of the chase, the satisfaction of a successful hunt, and the camaraderie around the fire pit at night. Our guides aren't just skilled - they're good company, full of local knowledge and hunting stories that'll keep you entertained for hours.
