DIY hog hunt - PaulB84 - 01-29-2012
Us Michigan boys don't get the chance to do much hog hunting, despite what the DNR is screaming from the rooftops.
I've never paid for a hunt and I'd much rather just take a few pointers, find a decent place and go for it myself.
So who has the most of the bastards with the cheapest out of state tag?
grendel seems like an excellent pig gunthanks

This maize and blue guy might add inexpensive or free access. Not that I am cheap, but a retired disabled Vet and like to get as much as I can out of a buck. I would like t get as many hunts s I can in b4 the grim reaper takes me. Since I can stay on military bases, hunts near them would be good. IF I had a place to store my weapon (s) since they would frown on me bringing one on base.

Why not hunts ON military bases? There are multiple that allow hunting, and disabled vets get priority, I believe!

Hogs in Texas are legally pests. No tags, no limits, no regulations on how they must be taken (as far as I know...check Texas law instead of taking a guy on the interweb's word for it, of course.)
The issue is always finding a place to hunt them, though.

there are bases that allow hunting on-base, but really not ON BASE persay. Take Eglin AFB for example. Eglin is one of the biggest Air Force bases in the WORLD. Hell you look at a map, seems like it takes up half of the lower east coast lol.
With a permit you are legally allowed to hunt on the RESERVATION side of base. You take a gun onto the main part of base, and well, your asking for trouble. The reservation is, still technically Air Force owned property, and is marked as such. Only individuals with permits are legally allowed on the land, however there is no way to enforce this to the fullest due to the sheer size of the reservation.
Thee reservation is also devided into different sectors, ie, dog hunting, rifle hunting, primitive(bow), shotgun, etc. kinda cool actually

Need a hunting license to hunt in TX, not specific to species though.
"A NON-RESIDENT is any person who does not meet the requirements listed for qualification as a
Texas resident.
It is unlawful to:
• hunt or fish without a valid license, or a permit and stamp endorsement on your person and available
for inspection by a game warden, unless exempt by age, program or a reciprocal agreement with
another state.
• use another person’s license or tag to hunt or fish.
• let someone else hunt or fish with your license or tags."
The non resident 5 day license is $48
Only reason I know is I'm going in March.

HPW- where in TX are you going?
DIY hog hunt - CavTrooper - 02-19-2012
Fort Stewart and Fort Benning, both in Georgia, have good numbers of hogs.

Near Waco. A buddy has family near there.

One of my friends that is with the AMU, Brandon Green, kills lots of hogs on Benning. He bow hunts only which is ironic since he is one of the top service rifle competitors in the US currently ranked #4. He has told me on several occasions that it isn't to difficult to find the hogs but they do move around so current information is needed to locate them.

Thanks for the tip. My buddy has some good spots lined up, but if they don't pan out we may have to check this out.
