hunt the first time with a guide.

Pigs are good for first time. Pigs or deer.

Where I live there are guided hog hunts for around $600.00. After you plug your porker, tell the guide to show you how to dress it. It''s customary to tip the guide after, maybe 150.00 ??

You can learn more watching an old hand than you ever can by reading.

I learned on pigs, with a guide. Pigs are good for the first time because it's something you're probably already used to eating, it has more edible meat than deer, and you shoot WAY better pork than you will EVER see in any store.

Up here in atascadero, the pigs eat wild wheat, barley, and wine grapes. The meat is super-sweet and very succulent. DAMN! Now I feel like a pig roast.
