Great night hog hunt place.

I used to go to this 2000 acre milo farm and get 4-5 hogs each summer. Its my favorite place to hunt hogs. He tried to keep them out back then when I was going, so he could harvest more milo, he even had electric wire around the place. He's switching to just ranching and hog hunting now, tractor fuel for farming the milo went up, grain prices went down. Now, he has all cattle, its less work and he tries to attract the hogs. He has night hog hunts, really 24 hrs a day. There are blinds with nice chairs and bunkbeds. He can handle 1 to 6 hunters per night, right now and has a friends place, if this is successful, to more than double that. That's the most successful time there, during the night. Most people shoot one, he said, I talked with him yesterday at the monthly gun show, some shoot more, its no limit though. Cleaning them would be the limiting factor most likely. He's attracting hogs now.

Glenn Gembler 830-569-5467 in McCoy, Texas south of San Antonio about 1 hour drive. Off of I-37, the road to Corpus Christi, at mile marker 98, about 7 miles east and 1 miles north, you're right at his gate. $175/day for 1 hunter, $150 each for 2 to 5, and $125 each for 6. The out of state over the counter liscense is $45.

They've got sizes up to about 300 lbs recently. There's barbeques for cooking, the bunks for sleeping, water for washing out the hogs. Its got lots of hogs.

Its amazing to me that he gave up on preventing the hogs from coming on his ranch and is now attracting them. If you can't beat them, join them. They'll kill about 250 hogs / year on this place, no problem, I'm thinking. He used to kill 150 / year trying to keep them off the ranch, back when I went there. It got to where I could not handle the hog meat I would get, when I got good at hunting them on that ranch.

Hogs are amazing! No comments?
