RE: How would you hunt them?
We hunt with dogs but we ride mules (my dad has had cancer and can't take the walking, the other guy we hunt with is 84 or 85 and could not hunt if it was not for the mules, and I am too short to keep up with my husband much less dogs!). We started with 4-wheelers but they can't jump a fence or cross a creek. My husband is the one who usually gets down and goes in for the kill (he uses a .30-30 and has been known to drag one out for someone else to do the honors). Then all you have to do is lope a rope around the saddle horn and the mules will drag the hogs out for you. We start out early—are in the woods when the sun is coming up—in the spring/summer time and don't go hog hunting at all after bow season starts (don't want people shooting the dogs). We do not hunt at night and I have never understood the whole night thing. Why would I go out in the dark to hunt something that is dark? Have done it from a stand before b/c they were tearing up the pasture but was unsuccessful.
For several years Will and I went to S. Texas with friends hog hunting—bows only. We hunted over feeders and did the spot and stalk. I loved all of it! We have done the spot and stalk thing here in E. Texas and it was a blast (well, except for the mosquitoes!!).
I depends on what you want out of the experience and how fit (and tall!) you are.
