I am looking for an affordable hunting trip to give my husband for his birthday. Are there any?
Answers:
Anyone know of any sites for free fishing gear?
A Texas Hog Hunt sounds like what you need.-They can be taken with almost any firearm, rifle, shotgun, pistol, bow or even hunt them with dogs and a knife.
-They provide a huge adrenaline rush, hogs can get HUGE!
-The meat is very tasty
I have hunted on the ranch listed below. They are absolutely crawling with hogs and other exotic animals.
They have a promotion where they sell hog hunts for $1 from June 1st until November 1st. It allows a hunter to harvest 2 bobcat, 2 coyote, 2 varmints ( possum, gopher, rabbit, armadillo, ringtail cat, racoon ) and unlimited hogs!
3 day/2 night hog hunt $1.00
Meals, Guide and Lodging $225.00
Kill fee for each hog $50
____________________
Total $226.00 per hunter plus $50 per hog
If you can find a better deal, please let me know.
Also, the staff are very nice people. They give free hunts to church groups, non-profit organizations, the disabled, and terminally ill patients. These guys really are great.

Is it a good time to go mackerel fishing in Dover yet?
Check some of the exotic game ranches in Texas.An acquaintance of mine is putting together a hunt this summer on a game ranch and he posted the following price and trophy list:
"A high estimate but, no charge for hogs = $0
A water buffalo, say around = $1200
A trophy (EBR) blackbuck around = $1000
Lodging = $0
Total $2200 all included except your $45 TX exotic license. The taxidermist will come out and take care of everything if you want and I will take the stuff to the meat processor too if you wish.
The blackbuck prices have been fluctuating. The $ would depend on if it was born and raised free on the ranch or if I buy and release one this spring. The most we have charged is $1200 for a good 'un.
Water buffalo are cheaper than blackbuck! I have been able to offer them as low as $800. You might also pick a bison, yak or longhorn for a little less than the water buffalo."
Bear in mind, this is a hunt put together for a group of friends. Prices for the general public might vary. If you are interested, you can check out the whole thread at: http://leverguns.sixgunner.com/topic.asp...

FWIW, I think your husband is a pretty lucky fellow to have a wife who wants to give him a dream hunt for a birthday gift.
