Thanks for posting those links, Jamal  From my browsing, it looks like Chambers, Bowhunter's Paradise, JB Hunting, Keith Johnson, or White Antler look promising, IMO.  For me, going to Austin would either be a 20hr drive or a $400 round trip plane ticket. |

I was invited to hunt Bowhunters Paradise maybe 6 years ago...whenever it was that he got started up. I haven't heard anything but good since he got into it  ram and unlimited hogs $600. with a two day minimum. $1,200.  |

JB looks like the typical bait and switch operations.
I'd have to talk to them and get references before saying no.

So far (working down the list) Brushyhill is the only place that seems to fill all the requirements....as listed on the site.
Chambers is another definite potential but would require a call to find out more details.

hang in there doegirl !! i was checking southwest prices right now specials from colubus to san antonio was 143 -179 o/w but mid week was 99 o/w these specials may show up again as we get more towards the summer it is hard to tell not knowing when to go right now prices are low ......
I would be leaning towards chambers, brushy hill, kjo,white antler and happy arces
i'm suprised no one mentioned happy arces in GA can drive from ny can fly in good prices with 4 or more
bowhunters paridse prices has really gone up since he has opened but he packs them in!!

border hog hunt fits all the things you asked for bt including group rates all inclusive!!
But most of these places are stand hunts and that works for some but not for all.
I know that Spiker, Doe girl, and Rayzortech dont mind stands but Greg, Randy and myself really like the stalks.
Hunting a feeder at night?....I dont mind that because it's a whole different game.
I know that Texas midday stalking is not popular but neither is mid day hunting during the summer.
It's early A.M. or night.....too damn hot even for the Locals and certainly for the hogs.
Another thing is that I think a few are getting burnt out on hogs and want to try hoofed game.
Texas is a great option for that but I dont see many options for that at all over the whole list.
Those that do offer that opportunity are priced up....Like Paradise.
I just blew through the sites last night.
I'll go back and keep looking.
Just trying to get everyone everything....not easy....never is.

keithjohnsoutdoors, may be big enough but I doubt it.
The idea of going this route is to get as many people in as possible.
I want to see as many members as possible coming to this 4th annual event.
I believe that this option that you want to pursue may be the way to get it done....but every aspect must be perfect....because it can be.
