Written by: "Wrenchmaster" Posted on deertexas.com I made the mistake of booking and paying for this so called "hunt" with wildhoghunt.com before checking; the only thing positive I can say is that I've paid more tuition for the "school of hard knocks". The whole affair was a mess, to say the least. The first thing that started alarm bells going off in my head was the fact that we were required to buy two bags of deer corn, something that should have been provided by the ranch. Then, when we were checking in, it was made very clear that a $50.00 gratuity was to be paid then. I do not tip at a restaurant before the meal and refused to pay this upfront. We were also informed of all the extra fees that would be required, such as paying $10.00 per animal that was put in their freezer, and a $35.00 per animal skinning fee. I had purchased two hunts but my partner could not get the time off; when I asked if I could take the two hogs from that hunt, Paul refused. Of course, I could take an extra hog for another $100.00. I understood forfeiting the hunt, but not being able to take the hogs which I'd already paid for was more than a little hard to swallow. Another item that was somewhat troubling was the fact that another hunter had purchased two hunts and paid for the meals and lodging. I asked if I could purchase the lodging from him, again, we were refused. Before we went out hunting, several people asked about the size of the hogs. They had been lead to believe that 400 lb. hogs were around; we soon learned that the largest we could expect would be maybe 100 lb. ones. The actual size of the hunting area was misrepresented in the website; the actual hunting area is only 300 acres, not the 2000 advertised. When you put 7 or more hunters in this small an area twice a week, you must assume that the hogs are being brought in and released (canned hunt). The website also talks of "guided hunts", this is not the case. We were given directions to the blind and drove my own truck there. In conclusion, if you want an actual hunt for hogs, do not use this bunch. As far as I'm concerned, it was downright fraud. The only thing that Paul is concerned about is taking your money and to hell with providing a decent product for monies paid. I repeat, DO NOT USE "WILDHOGHUNT.COM", you will most likely be sorry if you do. Written by: "Wrenchmaster" Posted on deertexas.com

Written by: "rangerjohn" Posted on deertexas.com: Well I am 2 for 2 today. I hunted last summer with this guy and I bought 3 hog hunts off ebay for myself, a friend, and my dad. We got there and stayed in the new camp house which was not too bad. That is where the good ends and the bad begins. I paid for the hunt on ebay and everything was included, but I got there and, same old story, added fees for everything. The "guide" was his son, whom he does not pay. After collecting the money I thought it was odd that he packed up the other kids and his wife and took off to Fiesta Texas in San Antonio for the weekend. The food was bad - not even remotely good. I saw 3 hogs all weekend and I took about a 35 pounder. My dad saw none, and my friend shot the only one he saw - about 25 or 30 pounds. One man from LA took one about 150 lbs with a bow, but had to get it out by himself because no one was around to help him. We were told we had to bring corn for ourselves, and we had not even been there for 3 hours, and mine was almost completely eaten by the "pet" elk right out of the bed of my truck (got a nice scratch). Bottom line, I guess I need to do more research before buying a hunt online. Written by: "rangerjohn" Posted on deertexas.com

This Paul guy is still at it... he avoids negative feedback on ebay by saying if they give positive feedback before the hunt that they can shoot a "free" hog. He is scammy enough to know that the hunts are booked so far in advance that its impossible to leave feedback after the hunt.

Just got back from hunting at this con artisits place.   Drove 13 hours with friends to hunt in a oversized dog pen with the most unfriendly and unhelpfull guides/staff I have ever come across.  This guy should be in prison for taking peoples money like he does. 

Just got back from paul's ranch. We had a great time and saw and shot many hogs. The staff was awsome and the food was great. We saw about 50 hogs a day when walking around, hunting at night we saw a few hogs and it was slow , but alot of fun. varmint hunting is very difficult in general and not recomened at this place. we saw a skunk but did not have enough time to put a good effort into hunting varmints.  The best time to hunt this place at night is from midnight to daylight. We saw a giant hog at night but it would not come into bow range. we shot 6 hogs and all were around 150 pounds. there were 11 people total hunting the ranch at one time which i thought would be way to many but it was just fine. Everyone shot hogs. The only complaints that we had were that they charge to put your meat into a cooler and when they to it is just frozen into a big block. when you have them cut up your hog stand there and put the meat into bags before it go's into the cooler. when the debone your animal they don't do a very good job, the meat is left with dirt and hair on it. Paul? who is this guy? Is he made up? You would think the owner of the ranch would stop and thank a guy for hunting on his ranch, the guy is no where to be found. There are no other ranches like he says there are. There is only one and it is about 320 acers. Other than that it was a great time. Paul's B.S and false advertisment makes this place a bad place to hunt. It is really not a bad place to go. I feel bad for his staff who have to deal with him and his B.S that he tells people and then when they arrive to hunt they get the complaints. He has a great staff.
