Recommendations on Hog Guides

[Val]

A buddy wants to go on his first hog hunt. It's been a while since I last went hogging. I'm looking for recommendations and contact info on reliable honest effective hog guides from you guys. Thanks.

...read the reviews. Probably your best source for that kind of info.

I thought Deedy at Bryson/Hysperia used to be a sponser and she has nice quarters and lots of ranches she guides on with crops and loads of pigs.
Almost any place out of Parkfield (except larry hamilton) is a good bet, Jack Ranch, Varian Ranch, Hearst Ranch...

I have sent you an email with an extensive list with annotations about quite a few Outfitters in Central CA. I also gave you a number to call me for further details.

do ou have number to those ranches for pg hunt or websites.

I sent you the annotated list of guides I know or have talked to. I don't post it as it contains some of my comments and I dont' want to get into a discussion of my opinions of persons/personalities on this forum. If you find it useful, just thank me, give me any feedback on the guide so I can keep informed and post up the story of your hunting so we can all enjoy it vicariously.

Dave and Perry are real good at JFH. The only issue for the guy who started the thread is they are in N. Cal and he was looking for Central I believe.

I just finished a hunt with David Rossi in San Ardo CA. The guy has his own camp mground which is private, meaning he doesn't book any other groups once you lock him in. He has clean toilet and shower facilities. There are pits to build a fire, gas lights (operate on Coleman fuel), and targets for pistol or rifle practice. He does a combo of jeep, stalking, tree stand. He really works hard and is patient. It was my first hog hunt but hopefully not my last. He is also a great teacher and didn't mind sharing knowledge. This is his site http://panchoricocreekranch.com/ Hope this helps.

Looked at the site. What was your price? Some of the intel is old (turkey stuff talks about 2008 as last season) so I'm just wondering if the pricing listed (good price) on the web site is current.

Thanks

Hi, I paid 500.00 because a buddy went with me. However a single hunter is 600.00 I asked him about turkey hunting and he said it is 450 for a single and 350.00 each for two. Even though the 450.00 seems steep, the free campsite is worth the extra hundred, esp since the nearest town is 12 miles away for a motel.

Wow...$500.00 to $700.00 (plus guide tip) for a pig that is damaging the ranch anyway. Amazing. Right next door vineyards are paying ADC guys to shoot hogs. Time for me to start cold calling.

Thanks. I just gave you your first official JHO thanks.

I sent it the other day but it bounced. Not sure what email you'd given me in PM as I recall. I've sent it again and if you don't have it by 10 am today, just email me directly at asaxon@mednet.ucla.edu

Very good reading these listings, I hope people will continue to note their experiences.
Trying to search in the Hunting & Giuide's reviews isn't working out well for me as I can't seem to be able narrow it down to California & Hogs.
Am I missing something?
