Things to Know

There are several things to think about when hunting wild boars in Monterey County. 

During summer months I also do firefighting and run bulldozers on wildfires. 

I can get a call at any moment and I can be gone for weeks at a time.

Your business is important to me and if this happens I will connect with you to reschedule your hunt.

The Hunter's Role in a Guided Hunt

As a hunter, you need to understand that you share equal responsibility in this hunt with the Guide. My role as your Guide is to help you harvest an animal by knowing the land and tracking where the animals are throughout the year.

Your role is to come prepared. This means bringing a weapon sighted in at a minimum of 100 yards and spending time practicing your shooting. Your preparation is essential for a successful hunt.

While I will provide an opportunity within a reasonable shooting range, it is your responsibility to have the basic skills needed to make the shot. My job is to Guide the hunt, and your job is to make the shot to ensure success.
