The problem with hunting on Hood is you are limited to what weapons you are allowed to use. Your only able to use muzzle loaders, shotguns, or archery equipment. No centerfire, or rimfire weapons are allowed.
If you happen to find any though give me a shout and I'll be more than willing to come sling some arrows at them....

i tried for about a month and a half until i was told that there really aren't that many left on hood due to them being trapped and sold, and that it'd be pretty amazing if you saw one. met other hunters that had the same luck as i had and had been searching for hogs a bit longer than i had. the people at the sportsmen center will always tell you there's tons of hogs and they're everywhere and to just go down by the lake or water. i did and had no luck and saw no sign of hogs either. good luck though, if you do find any post up so maybe we could all figure this thing out

I can tell you there are a lot of hogs at hood..... I have personally butchered 50 from the place. The have been scarce of late only because they have moved off for a time. The are coming back now... The base trappers have started catching them again...

The post wildlife biologist is a personal friend of mine and if anyone know the hogs there he does... be patient and learn how and when to hunt them and success will come.

They are pretty nomadic around here, I think. A while back,there was an article in the Cove paper about them being a nusaince out toward Pidcote and out towards Gatesville. If they are on post, I'd guess they are out towards Gateville road.
