Ever heard of these guys?

[Cal hunter]

Cavalleto Outdoors.They are advertising on craigslist so I emailed them and they got back to me saying they are a 4400 acre ranch near paso robles and that they only allow one group at a time on the ranch and to call for more info.I will call to get more info I was just wondering if any of you guys ever heard of them.

Haven't heard of them at all, but it's certainly worth the follow-up. Let us know what you find out, and if goes well, don't forget to post up in the Outfitters and Guides review section.

Ok,Just got off of the phone with Craig.It is friday evening through sunday afternoon.It is fully guided they dont have much luck with archery hunters the property is rolling hills with some trees in some of the canyons and thats where the pigs are.He says they have them patterned pertty good.not sure about accomidations didnt ask.The price is $300 and another $250 if you score on a pig.It is not for me I perfer to hunt heavier cover with my bow,but for a rifle hunter it may be a good deal.

 

[SDHNTR]

That price aint exactly the world's greatest bargain.

 

[Cal hunter]

I agree I dont care for the price but I know guys willing to pay more.

Where is near Paso? Is it in Nipomo?

I know the name Cavalleto but didn't know they had a guideing service.

$550 for a successful guided hog hunt is NOT a bad deal... given what guided hunts are going for these days.

Look around fellas... like it or not, prices are going up hard and fast.

 

[Cal hunter]

Speck you are right about the prices going up thats why I can only afford a pay hunt once a year and Chopper gets that money his place is always an adventure hunting and in the cabin

 

[oneshothunter]

hey cal have you updated your e-mail yet lol got info for you on a hunt we need to go on lol

 

[Speckmisser]

Cal Hunter, Chopper's is a dang-sure good bet for your buck, no doubt about that! He'll keep getting a chunk of my hunting allowance every year too.

well then come on over to my place spec and bring your money........heck I'll even knock off $50.00 if you actually hit something.

 

[SDHNTR]

I guess it's not that bad. I'm just used to paying a $100 less for a well known operation with a good reputation.

 

[MikenSoCo]

I'm in the wrong business. By the way, how many acres does Chopper hunt??

I always bring my money when I come to your place, Birddawg... but I ain't payin' to hunt those danged bulletproof pigs. You probably got quite a giggle at my discomfiture, but that little incident really damaged my self-confidence and self-esteem.

I wonder what PETA would think about you dressing those poor critters in kevlar and letting your friends bounce bullets off of them? Hmmm..

Mike, Chopper is hunting about 4000 acres, I believe.

SDHNTR,

He WAS charging you the bachelor price, knowing you would get to hunt more often, but now that the mason jar is sealed with your you know what's in it, he will up the price.

Also Speck, I think you had a lapse in the last post, PETA freaks don't think!
