Who's been heli hog hunting?

My son and my brother both wanting to go pretty bad. So who's been and where? Ive seen cost vary quit a bit also so if you care to chime in on that feel free.

I hear its one heck of an experience . Not much of a hunt though more of a slaughter . My buddy just got back and they killed 75 . He was telling me that they also donate the meat and there is a few families that hang around and will go get them and get meat if you don't want it . I've never been so this is just hear say from my buddies .

Too rich for my blood. I'll just have to climb higher in the tree.

Hadn't been yet, but going the 3rd weekend in March with these guys http://www.texashuntingforum.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3972606/1 and can't wait! Don't know if they have any spots left, but might check them out?

Would love to do it and will do it someday, got to start saving up for it. Looks like a blast.

I think it would be a cool experience, but I'm not paying $1500 an hour. For that kind of cash you can get a killer lease and hunt all year. jmo

It sounds fun ..but for $1500 a hour I can find better things to due ...

$1600 for 2 hours: http://www.bcboutfitting.com/helicopter

I got to go this past weekend. My neighbor who owns a large ranch hired a helicopter to fly for pigs and coyotes. I got to go for about 3 hours and we got 25 coyotes and about that many hogs. It was one of the most fun things I have ever done. We used 12 gauge shotguns.I hope I get to go next year also as they do this once a year.

Never hunted them from a helicopter but Have seen tons of them while penning cattle with a heli on the ranch in Zavala Co. The only thing I have shot is cattle that didn't want to act right. That was with a 22 pistol with ratshot.

I dont understand why it would cost that much. You can hire a chopper to pen your cattle for a hell of a lot less than that. You pay by the hour.

I need someone to fill a spot with me on the 9th.

Well worth the cost to do once, most fun I have ever had! Flew for almost 2 hrs and shot 25 pigs, and 5 coyotes. The AR was a blast to shoot but had the most fun with 12 gauge with buckshot, folds up large and small piggys alike!

I work in south texas and this past weekend the landowner was flying around in a small yellow helicopter and shooting the hell out of some pigs with what look/sounded like AR-15's..I used to see hogs everyday in the pasture beside my location, but not no more lol...Thats one thing I want to do for sure before I die..Its on my bucket list

I went with an outfit south of Houston last year for 3 hours in an R44. The cost was $650 per hour and we had 130 confirmed kills between me and my brother. I have a youtube video of alot of it if anyone wants to see it. We used 12 guages with 00 buck shot. laid em down
