Tioga Boar Hunting

An awesome hunt! I have a special needs daughter and everyone was so understanding and accommodating. Linda at the lodge was one of the nicest people I've ever met - and she's a really good cook too! Our guides Chase & Jared were the best. Two wild boars this trip - what's next? Don't know but we will definitely be back.

I went to Tioga for the weekend in September. Tioga surpassed any expectations I had. You’re treated like a king from the moment you check in until you leave. The meals are all homemade and beyond delicious. Truly, the food was so good. My guide was very cool and very down to earth. His name is Derek. He provided a no stress fun and exciting hunt for a Russian. The hunting is legit. You put in work with your guide who knows the terrain and where to find these pigs. The prices are fair and I paid for processing and a European mount. I’m definitely coming back next year for a management hog. Whether you’re looking for a trophy or food or BOTH you can find it at Tioga. Can’t wait to come back. Hey! Providing an update. I received my European Boar Mount. It is amazing! Tioga has a lifelong hunter in me! See you guys in October!

Daddy, Daughter Experience of A Lifetime! This was my third visit to Tioga Ranch. My oldest daughter was showing an interest in hunting and as we began practicing her shot I realized she could comfortably make an ethical shot up to 100 yards. At that point I asked her how interested she was in harvesting an animal and she was eager. Where I hunt in Northern Ontario, Canada the whitetail bucks don’t start to move until mid November on a regular basis during daylight hours. I have harvested wild big game all across Ontario hunting from a camp without power or water and a tent. Introducing my daughter to hunting from a cabin and all day sits in minus 10 to minus 20 Celsius wasn’t in my interest as it would have most certainly turned her off freezing all day. At Tioga, it is a preserve hunt and for anyone questioning whether or not we worked for her deer, hold on! We hunted two days. Each day my Garmin watch tracked my steps which were around 15,000 per day which equated to 14km or roughly 10 miles. My daughter is 7 years old and an athlete and loved every minute of it seeing all the amazing animals! Saying that, she was tired and legs sore at the end of the days. It’s a hunt, regardless of how people feel about high fence hunting. My daughter didn’t stop smiling for 3 days! If anyone whether you are a parent, grandparent, guardian of any kind that wants to introduce their youngster to the outdoors or hunting this is the place! The quality of animals is fantastic, the lodging is amazing, the hospitality staff are so caring and the guides are exceptional. This is a family run ranch and it shows! This was my best few days in the field in my life, and I didn’t harvest the deer! I was a 40 year old sobbing mess seeing how excited my daughter was to take her first buck and how proud she was. Safety was paramount, the experience was the focus and my daughters joy was always top priority for Derek and Jared who guided our hunt and Mark who organized the three days for us. No better place in North America to get your kiddos into the outdoors world… my humble opinion… MJ

Took my daughter for a fallow hunt and it was perfect ! The staff was great from beginning to end. The accommodations were great, clean rooms and great food. Also plenty of sweet tea ! Southern style of course ! I highly recommend them !

We had a great hunt with our guide. They food and lodge were great, but the people were even better. We were treated very well. My son was thrilled with his first hunting and the size of the management hog did not disappoint. I definitely recommend.
