A lot are turned loose alive too. Buy a hog for $50-$100 and sell hunts for $200-300.
Minimum 2 days gets you for $250.00
Who do I contact for these hunts from blinds, that a handicapped person can do?
THIS is the very reason the hog problem is what it is today.
Hog hunting has to be outlawed to stop the relocation for money hunts. Then an eradication program similar to yotes to control populations.

The eradication efforts of the government in the 50's putting a bounty on a pair of coyote ears didn't work out too well.
I do agree commercial hunting should be stopped. It probably won't help much, but its a start.

Ok, well that changes things a bit but you just have to kill enough hogs to make it worthwhile. The fun aspect has value too but if I spent $250 on a hunt and came home with $100 worth of pork or none at all I'd cry myself to sleep lol.
If they're such a nuisance, exist in such huge numbers, and destroying as much property as we are led to believe....why are people charging, and other people paying, so much to hunt them?
$300 bucks to shoot a not-rare oversized nuisance rodent from a fixed stand? No way. Good money if you can make it I guess. If folks want to pay and that's what the market will bear then it is what it is, but it just seems that sometimes us "Sportsmen" are a wacky, illogical bunch.

That pretty much sums up my feelings too. I don't see how someone can claim to be a conservationist and then pay to hunt hogs. By paying to hunt them you are only guaranting to conserve the hogs. Those that have hog operations may cuss them, but they don't wanna see the hogs gone. They like the money, paid hog hunts = conserving hogs.
Good luck with your hunts, but I wouldn't give you a plugged nickel to shoot one. Its unfortunate, if everybody had the attitude I did they would be begging for somebody to come shoot them for free! Because left unchecked AND hogs not providing any income to the landowner they really are costly and destructive.
Absolutley this. ^^^
We need more laws restricting what people can do, and what they hunt. This freedom BS is not all it's cracked up to be.
