Texas has a serious hog problem; nearly 3.4 million at the last count ranking as the largest feral hog population in the U.S. Their numbers continue to increase due to their high reproductive potential and the lack of natural predators.
Feral hogs wreak havoc and cause extensive damage to property, livestock, crops and pastures across the state and frustrate landowners because in addition to the above, their destructive nature destroys fences, roads, ponds, fields and feed. The Texas AgriLife Extension Service estimates that statewide annual economic damage caused by feral hogs is $400 million and unless aggressive control measures are undertaken, the feral hog problem is expected to worsen in the years ahead.
Our VERTEX helicopter is flown by a highly experienced pilot and the gunner utilizes a .223 caliber, AR-15 semi-automatic rifle with 30 round magazines, from a specially designed side facing seat. This seating position, combined with the low-recoil, low-noise and low-weight of the rifle provide the perfect platform for a successful texas hog heli hunting.
