Most of the Helo hunts in my part of NE Texas are done in the fall , winter and very early spring while leaves are off the trees. If you are looking for a hunt now k, may be tough to find one.

We really liked our hunt with these guys in the Bryant/College Station area: Helibacon Hog HuntsThey were very professional, and organized, and have great high-end equipment. Seemed that most of the crew was ex-military. They fly a beautiful twin-engine Bell 212 which is the civilian version of the Huey, I felt a whole lot more comfortable than I do in a Robinson. We opted to upgrade to their full-auto option with an unlimited ammo supply I went with a 5.56, one of my buddies went 7.62 and the other one went belt-fed. There is something inherently cool about hanging out of a chopper, out in the wind with your feet on skids while ripping away with a machine gun. They get right down on deck when hogs are located on each of several farms/ranches that they have access to. The heavy rotor sound+engines typically flushed the hogs out of their cover. Just my opinion.
A Democracy is when two wolves and a lamb vote on the dinner menu. That is why this country was specifically not designed as a Democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic.
