feral hog question

[archerthearcher]

I am not trying to get secret honey hole locations or anything like that. Just some basic understanding about the behavior I have seen recently.

So I have asked around a few times here on the boards and ask the guys at Bow N Arrow and was told the local hogs like the lower altitudes [at or below 3k] and close to water/food.

However the past couple of weekends I have been out and seen heavy tracks and routing around in the 4500 range. And even had one 6-8 feet away from me [in heavy brush] grunting and stomping.

Can anyone confirm what I am seeing? Is this a spring time change for them or are they just mocking me? ;D

Sounds like you have the secret honey hole. Good luck

have hog dogs, willing to travel

stay at it and eventually you'll connect. Try to locate their bedding areas and set up between their travel routes. I seem to have better luck in the afternoons during the spring and summer months. With the heat kicking up, try to locate wallows and a body of water where the hogs are going to.
