Bring gloves for when you kill one and have to touch the stinking beast!

I have been drawn there several times over the last couple years on hunts for diff animal. the Javalinas are thick. Just bring corn, they will come to it. It will be a fairly easy hunt.

This. They have a lot of them, and they aren't very spooky. I had to chase them away from my tripod a few times, when I was there.
Have fun, that is an Awesome place to go!

I saw several javalina there in Dec when I was on a WT hunt. Depending on which compartment you draw, you may or may not have a blind available, so you probably want to bring a pop up just in case. Bring plenty of corn. I brought in more game at dawn when I spread out a lot of corn over a large area near my blind the evening before. I shot a WT and a pig (lots of pigs there too).

If you are allowed to stay at the bunkhouse, do it. It is a nice place and very convenient.

Bring nice chair. Spread corn in long straight away. Stalk them when they get on the corn. They can't see so you can walk to within 100 yards then start using cover and slow down

Keep the wind in your face if stalking as they have great sniffers,

I like to set up on an intersecton of senderos and corn in each direction (being mindful of the wind direction).
