It's hard to find someone that is actually having a really bad time with hogs, but they are out there.
Now EVERYONE that has wild hogs running around they land says they are having a bad time with them, but common sense proves otherwise.

These land owners come in 2 categories.
#1 is by far the largest of the 2 categories.

I call Catagory #1 into 2 subsections. 1A and 1B.

1A.
These are the people that see the hogs as assets, not a liability. They sell the hunts for good money and the hunters pay it because they are willing to pay the price asked for the meat and the fun of the hunt. These people will not try to lie about how they are on the brink of destruction because of the hogs. They are honest about what they have and what they offer, and they have priced the hunts at the number they think people will pay. If they cost too much people don't pay, and they have to rethink the pricing, but that is what a free market economy is all about anyway.

1B. These are the ones to avoid. They cry "wolf" (or Hog) to all who will listen and beg for someone to come help them, but then want to charge you (usually a lot too) to help them with the problem that is "destroying them".
This is like finding a man stranded on a deserted desert road with a flat tire. You stop to offer help and he then telly you you must pay him to help him change his tire.
Drive away!
leave him there!

You see, doing business with anyone that is making a policy out of lying is always a bad idea.
Never support such people. If they can't be trusted to be honest at the first meeting you will never be able to trust them and such people will always screw over anyone else they can if it means a gain for themselves.

Find someone in Category 1A.

Or if you can find one in category B.

These are the ones that are hard to find, but they do exist.
These are the land owners that REALLY are in trouble with the hogs. Most are not.

If you find one that really is, they will let you hunt for free.

They are like the man that is actually stranded on the deserted road and really wants and needs help. These are the ones I look for 1st because they are in a true need.

Even if I were a wealthy man, and was willing to pay for landowners in Category #1A, I would always go to those in category B first because they truly NEED help and then I would go to a catered hunt from someone in 1A afterwords too, but those that are not in real trouble would come after those that are.
