Hello to all, I was hopeing that someone might be able to give some recommendations from personal experience.
I live in VA and wanting to go hog hunting again. Looking for some place within driving distance, like maybe TN, SC, GA. I have been to a couple of outfitters in SC a couple of times and had a great hunt. Friendly atmosphere, good food and nice people, but no hogs. I know hunting is hunting and sometimes you strike out. I was wondering if anybody has been recently and could recommend a place to go or outfitter?
Thanks, Backwoods

We have a lot of them on our middle Tennessee lease but you have to know where they will be in order to hunt them. They tend to not stay in the same place day after day. We have been very successful in trapping them but have only shot 1 since mid Jan. There is a very large fenced hunting preserve a few miles from our lease that has guided hunts for what ever you wish to hunt. I have seen the hogs inside the fenced area. I will get you some info on it.For reference, it is about 10-15 miles due North of Monterey, TN

The place by Monterey is wilderness hunt club or wilderness hunt lodge, can't remember.
I have been there twice and it's a nice ace with good folks, good lodging and good food. The hunting is not what I would call hunting. They do have a very large enclosure West of the main lodge that makes it more challanging.
I used a handgun both times I went. With a rifle I would never go only because it would be far too easy. Archery gear in the large enclosure and you could come home empty handed so it's not exactly pick and shoot. The hogs are by far the hardest to animal to hunt there.
They do have some pure russian strain hogs there, damn good looking oinkers if you want a beautiful mount. They also have some huge and I mean huge russian hogs for a higher price. I saw one come in and it was huge!
