Day of hunt expectations
Arrive 30 minutes early, so we can gear up, load the side by side to prepare to head up the hill. Before we leave, we will review licenses, rifle, ammunition, and gear as well as do a safety briefing and sign waivers. Then we will go out on the ranch to scout, glass and start hunting. After harvesting an animal, it will be field dressed and transported back to the meet up location skinned out and placed in your cooler. If you would like additional pigs, then we will head up the hill and do it again.

I love the outdoors and hunting, and my hope is to help people make memories that will last a lifetime.
