I hunted with TJ (Tracy) and Running Wild Guide Service. His is a really cool dude. Him and his girl friend Amber do the guidein. He has two different locations that he hunts. One is in Healdsburg sonoma county and the other is more near the coast. I hunted on the Healdsburg property Nov 9th last year. It was the day after the first rain. The weather reports said it was gonna rain on that Sat the day of my hunt. But it rained all day on fri while I was at work. TJ does do pre-scouting before he takes you out. There was SO MUCH FRESH ROOTING it was amazing. But they must have been out all night in the rain grubbin. Cause we went all over the property. We spent the last hour or so of daylight on the highest rig glassin and listening but didnt see anything but some deer. It is prime time pig habitat oak trees, vineyards, and vegtable gardens. But on the Healdsburg property we must have gone over/under at least 10 fences. He has access from the farmers to go on the back parts of the propertys. There is no doubt that he has pigs. I am planning on going back but I would like to check out the other property near the coast. But the guy knows his pigs.

'I went out for a wild hog hunt with TJ a couple of weeks ago. He had obviously done his scouting beforehand, and he took me right to an area with extensive signs of recent hog activity. It was kind of like what you'd see if the rotor-tiller drill team had just finished a practice session.
Very soon after we started hiking, we rounded a bend and nearly stumbled across a large group of hogs that were taking an early morning break under a small stand of trees. TJ had warned me that we might see something at any time, and had told me to chamber a round as soon as we got out of the truck. As the hogs scattered, I was able to get off a decent shot at a really nice freezer hog, which was exactly what I was after. I was shooting an un-scoped lever action .44 magnum, and the hog dropped right where it stood. Hogs scattered in every direction. Great hunt! After dragging the hog out of the hills, TJ was kind enough to skin my hog and make sure it was clean and would be received well by a butcher. Nice job!
If you're looking for a great hog hunt, I'd highly recommend TJ & his Running Wild Guide Service. I'd also recommend that you be ready for anything, as there is always the possibility of a very close encounter. The area we were hunting would be great for bow hunting, but if you're planning to use a rifle, you might want to think in terms of short range shooting. Get comfortable with open sights or a low-power scope.'
