Reviewer Comments: Feeders were either broken or empty. This was my 5th hog hunt in the US, and the ONLY time I've even been skunked. We didn't even SEE a single pig, even after dropping corn and coming back to shine after dark. The "bunk house" where we slept was the same quarters they use to house the illegals when they come to work around the ranch. It was filthy and in terrible disrepair. The linens hadn't even been changed...there was sand in the bedsheets. I booked this particular hunt because of the accomadations pictured on their website...I took my wife. We didn't stay in the 'main' house (the one seen in the photos)because the owner of the ranch had apparently unexpectedly returned. Plan B was to put us where the migrants slept. They didn't even have an archery target for clients to check their sights after traveling. I had to use a beer can. The first morning we had 13 Javelina come into the corn that the guide had put out. We didn't shoot as we were there for hogs. When the guide came to pick us up we told him what we saw and he asked why we hadn't shot. We were never told that javelina were a specie that we could take, much less be counted as our "hogs". We hunted HARD day and night and never saw a pig. I did finally launch a few arrows at the javelina just so that I could have SOMETHING to take home to show for my efforts. They've got access to a great piece of property, but the management leaves ALOT to be desired. In talking to the guide and the hands, it sounds like they are in the middle of a big political turmoil, and we came right in the middle of it. Everybody knows what is best for te operation, but no one wants to put the effort forth to do it. Lots of finger pointing.

Alberta Hunting Information
Alberta is a large, diverse province with rolling prairies, farmland, river bottoms, Boreal forests, and large expanses of the northern Rocky Mountains. Many species of big game, waterfowl, upland game and predators inhabit Alberta. Long known for monster whitetails, Alberta also is home to big mule deer, pronghorn antelope, elk, black bear, cougar, Canada moose, and bighorn sheep. In fact, 7 of the 10 largest bighorn sheep in Boone and Crockett record book are from Alberta. In addition to big game, Alberta offers some top notch bird hunting. Serious waterfowlers know about the large flocks of ducks and geese that call Alberta home or migrate through.
New Mexico Hunting Information
New Mexico is one of the top destinations for trophy Elk and Antelope hunting. Draw odds can be tough depending on the unit but landowner tags are also available for those who don't draw. Mule Deer are plentiful but generally of average size. Only a couple of units and reservations consistently produce big muleys.
Ohio Hunting Information
Ohio is best known for its trophy whitetail deer. In fact, the world record non-typical whitetail was harvested in Greene county by Mike Beatty in November 2001,
