Anyone have any experience with tioga?
seems they have a full gambit of wildlife to shoot, and, although i'm skeptical about some of their hunts was wondering what the concensus was, particularly about their boar hunts.

thanks in adavance.

I assume you are talking about the place in Pennsylvania ?

I went there about 15 years ago. I thought it was pretty canned, would not go back again.

Let me know if you have other questions.

I shot a boar there a few years ago. Jimmy Mac is on the money.

I've never been there, but it's only a few miles from from my home and everything I have heard would confirm what the other posters have said..I know it only covers about 200 acres..That ain't a big area inside a fence...

Hello. I "hunted" there last May for boar....Just go out in a barn yard and take a shot. Was NOT impressed and will not return. Got a real nice one with my bow...but left a real bad taste in my mouth....Sorry for the bad news. I hear some of the places in Tennessee are much better.

Both guys I know who 'hunted' there referred to it as a 'put-and-take' operation.

The same with a place nearby, Black Boar Lodge in Wellsboro.

If you want free-ranging hogs, try Texas.

a buddy of mine went there a couple years ago and shot some kind of sheep, a mouflon I think.
From his description of the place. WE determined it was a petting zoo [Big Grin] , and he has been taking a beating for it for over 10 years. Unless your physically challenged, I don't think I would recommend it.

If you're talking about the place in PA - forget it. I stopped there once several years ago just to check it out when I was in the area deer hunting. I diddn't hunt the property. It's strickly a canned hunt. The kind of place that gives all hunters a bad name.
