Hogs make an excellant off season hunt.Maybe some of these other members will bash you for what they call a CANNED hunt.1500 acres is alot of property to chase a hog around.You can by no means just walk up on them.They have a very good sniffer and will scent you out as easily as a deer.It's quite a challange to stalk up on one to get within bow range.And just as exciting when you do take one.
It's not how big the Deer,But the size of the experiance that matters!!

i don't know anything about the game ranch in question here. Check it out before you put down any money.
I have two different opinions of game ranches. 1. Large ranches (5000+ acres) that don't have feeders in every opening, can have wild animals! I would consider this fair chase! Remember though, any "high fence" will not qualify for B&C or P&Y ranking.
2. Small farms where the animals come running to your vehicle because they are used to being fed regularly are a farce! They are certainly not "hunting" ranches!

I hunted a private rancgh out here in Cali, there was 2200 acres and none of it was flat. In my opinion I did not think it was a canned hunt and it certainly was not guaranteed. Hogs are very smart and will not let you just walk right up on them. I had a good time hunting hogs as well as some exotic goats and sheep. Hope this little bit of information helps you make a decision.
