It not a bad deal. SCI does alot for Oklahoma and other states. I always thought it was just for african hunts and stuff like that. But that is not the case at all. They are very heavy into politics and keeping our hunting rights.

As far as the hog hunt...you have to bea national member and a state member...total cost for that is $85.00. then it is $15 for the hunt plus $1 per pound up to $150. My step dad has been a member for a while so I figured I would join to be able to partake in this hunt with him. Now that I know more about SCI Im glad I joined.

It is going to be a Monteria style hunt from what I was told. Im not sure which is the Monteria but they are driving the hogs with dogs for the hunt that I am doing then they are also doing the dog and knife hunts as well but thosecost a bit more.

So how is the hog population down that way? I got skunked during deer gun and archeryseason so I am looking forward to putting some meat in the freezer.

What's dogs & knives mean?

USFWC

That's what I was wondering. You hunt hogs with knives? That's really going primitive there! Count me out!

YEAH SOME OF THE HUNTS ARE DONE WITH DOGS AND KNIVES. tHE DOGS TRACK THEM DOWN AND HOLD THEM THEN YOU GET OUT YOUR "PIG STICKER" AND FINISH THE JOB. i AM MORE INTO SHOOTING THEM, BUT TO EACH HIS OWN. i HAVE HEARD IT IS QUITE THE RUSH AND WHILE IM DOWN THERE i MAY TAG ALONG ON ONE OF THOSE STYLE HUNTS
