Hog FAQ

What is a trophy hog?

A “trophy hog” is typically considered a wild boar with long, visible tusks—usually two inches or more past the gum line—and weighing upwards of 200 pounds. But truth be told, there ain’t no official standard for what makes a hog a trophy. Unlike deer or elk, feral hogs don’t have a scoring system or classification from any game authority. What some folks call a trophy might just be based on tusk length, body weight, or plain ol’ braggin’ rights.

At Ron’s Guide Service, we believe a trophy ain’t just hangin’ on a wall—it’s a memory etched in your bones. It’s that first hog you took with your daddy by your side. It’s the one you tracked through the Florida brush with your heart poundin’ louder than your boots. It’s the moment you outsmarted a beast that’s outsmarted you before. Big, small, tusked, or plain—if it made your heart race and your soul grin, that’s a trophy. And if you ask us, them kind of trophies are worth more than any set of tusks ever could be.
