Check closer for just "hogs" if that's all you want to hunt. I live in Oklahoma but work in Texas and I'm pretty sure (but don't go to jail over my advice....check it out) that if you are only hunting hogs and on private landyou don't have to have a license. I'll try to look tomorrow and see if I can find out where I got that idea. If I can find it, I'll post where the info is. I hope it works out for you. I believe there are still private landowners in north central Texas that might let a responsible guy hunt without paying a big (or maybe no) fee at all. Either way----Good Luck.
