Don't know anything about them other than I drive by their sign everyday and there is a BUNCH of hogs in the area.

Another ranch just up the road comes highly recommended by folks

Wow!! I've hunted here in NC for $125 a day and isn't Mr Ray's place less that half that for a week or close to it? They must be getting it or they wouldn't still be charging it.

Post by: OP-archer on April 07, 2011, 03:45:00 PM: I don't mind paying to hunt hogs. In fact, I've done it twice. But NEVER, EVER anything close to that amount. There is no such thing as a $900. pig, but there are $900. hunters. Outfitters and ranch owners wouldn't charge so much if no one was willing to pay. Obviously, they're a cash crop.

Post by: kuch on April 07, 2011, 04:19:00 PM: Not understanding where it says $900 for a hog hunt for longwood? I see $200 /day for meat hog???? $500 for 2 day with lodging with 2 hogs???

Post by: tarponnut on April 07, 2011, 05:52:00 PM: Generally speaking, if they hunt the hogs with dogs/buggies/rifles they will be pretty wired up making it tough to get within good bow range.
If you like to hunt them that way, go for it(not a thing wrong with it).Everyone should do at least one dog hunt with archery gear, it's a rush!

I would stick with archery-only places if you plan on spot and stalk or hunting over feeders.
I can recommend a choice few.
Nicky Roth, Archery Outfitters,trad guy,
Joaquin Capelle,hogwildoutfitters.com,Indiantown area, loves spot and stalk.
Also, oasisangling.com (trad-only guy)
Good luck.

Post by: Nala on April 07, 2011, 08:22:00 PM: they bust you for an additional $350 if the hog has 1 inch cutters. add $25 for them to clean it and you're up to $875!
let me know if i can be of any more help.

Post by: chopx2 on April 07, 2011, 08:47:00 PM: I have a hunt booked with Archery Outfitters in July and trying to squeeze in some time at Oasisangling too.

If you're not in a hurry ask me in mid July, I'll let you know how it goes.
