On second thought I heard Dangerfield or Hico are the places to be, lots of hogs, not many hunters and the few doggers that are up there are stringbeans and beanpoles. Grin

LOL

im definantly looking for a area with some trees.  A place i dont have to break my back literally to catch a hog.  I dont mind walkin, i dont mind getting dirty, but im tired of hunting these mountains.  I had been looking around the georgetown area all the way down to corpus christy.  I heard many of you say that there are deer leases? Are those that you pay to hunt? or is that property you dont get access to hunt? I really do appreciate all the info fellas...keep it coming!

Dude if you find a deer lease that is free in Texas it's not worth crap.  Texas is one if not the highest at leasing land at a crazy prise.  I pay almost $3,000 per year where i hunt so good luck with free hunting.  Plenty of places to hunt but you have to pay to play!

East Texas and central are going to be your best bet on the swine part. You can't beat south Texas whitetail tho. Its going to be hard to come to Texas and get land to hunt. You may have to use the buddy system for a while.

I didn't invent it, just perfected it  Wink

There's lots of deer leases up and down east Texas that are very reasonable priced, 500-1000 dollars per year, and my point is that its often easier to pay for a lease with the agreement that you can run dogs and Barr hogs in the off season than making dozens of contacts over the years and having small acreage places to hunt for free. If your really likeable and just run into the right landowners you may get lucky, but most farmers here in my county either have their own hunters already, or will threaten to shoot you and your dogs if they ever so much as hear a bay on their property.

Freestone County!!! Tons and tons of hogs in open country if your wanting numbers.. The dogs can finally stretch out their legs. Those are where the majority of our 20 hog days come from.

Walker & Trinity county for BIG, nasty barr hogs!

Any OPEN country where your not hunting 2000 acre youpon thickets is the best for us

I would stay away from Lampasas. I hear tell that Bump and his jagds eradicated the hogs there and his bulldogs got the last of the porkypines a couple of months ago Smiley

South eastern panhandle is full of hogs. Not much in the way of civilization though.

Central Texas is a great place but its going down hill.  WAY too many people now days.  I personally would stay away from the major population areas;  Houston metroplex, Austin-SanAntonio Metroplex or Dallas Metroplex.  Just too crowded for me. 

I would choose a place with as few people possible but still be able to find work.  Northeast Texas.  Central coastal Plains around victoria, Or around Abilene.
