Hello,

Wondering if I could hear some option. I have some ranches that are supposedly having hog problems. They are around Sonora and Rocksprings area in the hill country. I live in GA and usually go out there a few times a year to hunt deer and exotics. We have plenty of hogs over here just curious if anyone here hunts around this area? Maybe I could meet and set you up to get some hogs off.

How is the hog population in that area? Anybody hunt around Hill Country? Would love to hear about the hogs, dogs and best methods. Appreciate your option and insight..

We had a 10,000 acre lease in Sonora n never had a hog on it. Javelina wandered onto it occasionally. Can't speak for the surrounding areas, but that place didnt have a hog on it.

My grandpa own small ranchers in both areas has had place in rock springs for prolly 10 yrs we've killed prolly 10 hogs on it and the place in Sonora we have never even had a pic of hog but we only go during deer season I've never put a dog on either place they aren't huge places only 600 acres a piece but I wouldn't say there were an abundance of pigs in either place

5,000 acres 5 miles west of Sonora close to I-10, never seen a hog one in 8 years. Talked to guys a few miles south of town that see one once in awhile, and just north of town that never see them. Funny, but some ranches around are covered in exotics too, the guy south of town stopted shooting white tail because he fills the freezer with axis off the place south of town and we've never seen a one on ours.
Now we hunted on 19 right in the middle between Fredericksburg and Llano that has held hogs for years but suddenly in the last 2-3 years the population is out of control. Entire Meadows plowed up over night. I'm not on that lease any more but some buddies are and they are getting sounders of 30+ on camera, multiple groups that big.
