Default Exotic bowhunt

My son & I are still trying to fill another tag with just a few days left BUT we just booked a Texas Exotic Hunt for Exotics & wild Hogs. This is not a game farm. It is a low fence ranch that is 6 1/2 miles around the ranch. Any views on such a hunt???

always thankful

sounds like fun to me! I have mixed feelings on the "high fence" hunts. I have heard some of the realy large ones are no sure thing, and are pretty tough. I wouldn't want to hunt deer or any domestic game behind a high fence, but for exotics I probably would. Low fence hunts like you describe should be as tough as anything. Good luck and have fun.

We did reviews on about 30 different ranches in Texas (around 75 total in the US), some were good and some were bad. The main thing I would talk to the owner about would be is it going to be a hunt or a matter of which animal do I want to shoot? If he says you should be finished by a certain time thats pretty much telling you "Take Your Pick." On wild boar you never know what to expect and can be fun and interesting in many ways.

I have had MANY e-mails from Texas bowhunters during my search for a Texas hunt. This ranch is no sure thing & not which animal do you want to shoot. We will be hunting hard I am told(thats the way it should be). I will post what happens once we return.

always thankful
