This last weekend (Jan 29-Jan 31 2016) 5 of us drove down to Chambers Ranch just over 14 hours. Two of our guys had been to his ranch in years past, one of them had worked for Maurice at Chambers and Chrystal Creek. Two guys had Axis and Hog (one was myself), Two had hogs only, and the last had and Exotic hunt. When we got there, there was another group there (which we knew about) and they had a Hog hanging. they had purchased each bigger hunts than we did. So we of course are all excited. The first night, right at dark some hogs came in. Turned on my hog light and they scattered. Turned it off and they came back, Could have let an arrow fly but could tell what I was going to hit because of how dark it was. I was the only one out of our group that saw any animals besides whitetail that night. The other group had brought back animals. The next morning, I went to the same spot. Birds and Whitetail. One guy saw some goats. But didn't have that hunt. No Hogs where spotted that morning. The other group brought in a few animals. That day, one of our guys, that worked for Maurice in the past, went with they guide and moved some stands and cut better shooting lanes through the brush. That night, we all changed spots. Two of us saw hogs but could get a clean shot (just to ethical hunters I guess). And that was it. The next morning all our group saw was birds. So my experience is not very good. We were all very disappointed in the place. 5 guys 4 hunts that 20 stands and nothing came out of it. You can't spot and stock, when he drops you off at your stand, you stay there until he come to pick you up. Mid day not much to do besides take a nap, you can't go and hunt. We saw more hogs along the road than we did at the ranch. You would think that he would of offered something like another hunt or something. But Nothing. Maurice didn't say anything to us even though two of our guys know him pretty well. I would not go back, Stinks that we spent that much money and nothing. Now I know hunting is hunting, I understand that. But when you go to a Hog Ranch to hunt Hogs, and don't get anything, something is wrong. I hope you have better luck than the 5 of us did.

Thanks red arrow. There is going to be 7 of us, we are supposed to have the whole ranch. We really want axis does. Not very excited now. I appreciate the info.

I go there 3 or 4 times a year, don't always kill something. Made a 5 day hunt last year and killed 5 animals myself. Just because it's a high fence hunt dosent mean you will kill something every time. Been going there for a lot of years and has become one of my favorite places. Good people and very relaxing. Hunting is what you make of it, its not just killing!
