Default RE: What would you pay for a european /russian boar hunt

I don't mine paying for access but the fee some are asking for feral hogs seems a little high.After all in most places they are a hazard to country and other wildlife,paying to access the land to help offset damages is fair but if it's a place where you rough camp and provide your own supplies and means of caring for game then when cost hits 250plus for hunting it's unsettling.A trophy Russian boar with feeder and stand and accomadation should run higher!If everyone could hold out for 6 months where there hogs(feral) and they want 250-300 a weekend then about month 7 or 8 landowners would be more willing to haggle on price.It's rare to find anything decent for free so fair price is expected,but for price of fuel,feed,supplies,it's more feasible to eat beef.Not very far from making hog hunting a rich mans sport...look at what they can get for 1 deer in some parts but they are trophy managed and bred for quality...a hog is a hog! End of rant...maybe.
