Had a great experience here. We had a group of 7 hunters and 1 guest. Some never shot a gun before, everybody was a first time hunter.We did the dog assisted hog hunt and it was perfect for our group. 100% success rate. Guides were great -- safe, took care of everybody, and we all had an incredible experience.Thank you!

This was an Epic Adventure for us. They were able to accommodate us last minute, along with my husband and my son.Mat , Cody and his crew were knowledgeable, friendly, and fun.We did the Hog hunting with the Dogs. They are trained to locate the Hogs. Once done hunting, they carried back the Hogs. They skinned, gutted, and bagged it for us , We also paid for the Two Hog head Trophy. I truly recommend this place something to experience . Thank you West Shore Outfitters

This was my second time hunting with these guys and it was just as awesome as the first. They definitely know the hogs routine at night and put all 3 of us on some big groups of hogs! Our guide Cody also talked me in to fishing the next time we go down.

If you are looking for an adventure take the time and get over to West Shore Outfitters. Cody was the best, he set us up tIn the best spots to shoot and knew his shit. I had the best time of my retirement out there. Thank you West Shore Outfitters.

This was my First Hog Hunt. After searching several places, this place stood out! I called , set a date, and had an Amazing Experience!!I cant say enough about my guide Dakota, he told me EVERYTHING I needed to know. I saw a bunch of hogs running wild on the way to my spot. Within a very short time after I set up in the hide,hogs came out of nowhere!!With the knowledge and guidance of the folks here, I took one shot and got a 130 lb hog!Im definitely going back for another adventure!!!
Michael B.
Cody and Dakota are great guides. Took my wife and I out for our first hunt and took the time to teach us as much as they could. Came back again with my son and Cody made sure my son had the best time in the woods with his dad. Couldnt recommend these guys more and will be back again.
jeremy S.
Took my son on a nighttime thermal hog hunt for his 16th birthday. What an experience! We had a blast! Cody was awesome! He knew where the hogs were gonna be, even moved spots to get a bigger one. Took some good pics, Cody did a good job of quartering it up and we were on our way. My daughter is wanting to get herself a hog now too! Looks like we will be seeing Cody again in the future. Thanks again.
Jeff B.
The guys were considerate of us two old men and helped or slowed down as necessary. Thanks!!! We both got our hogs and the guys took great care of our meat. A great experience

If you are looking for a great hog hunt West Shore Outfitters is the place to go.I have hunted hogs in several states but none could compare with West Shores. I have never seen such a concentration of hogs. They were literally at every feeder on the property. Some times there were 3 or 4 in numbers and at other times there were 6+ hogs at the feeders. If want to have a successful hunt this is the place to contact. Guides were knowledgeable and extremely helpful. They are focused on you and your success.

Reviewing on behalf of my father, Rob Scott- who had an amazing time hunting with West Shore Outfitters!

Had an absolute blast. Took my son on his first hunt and Colby and the dogs didn’t disappoint. Action packed hunt with a great guide, what more could you want?
Victoria D.
For a fun hunt I highly recommend Westshore outfitters. Comfortable blinds and really good guides. Saw lots of hogs on our hog hunt. We will definitely rebook another hunt.

33 of us were on a spot and stalk night hunt. We all had a great time. Hogs everywhere. I plan to go back in May for a dog hunt.

West Shore Outfitters. Had a great experience hunting hogs with dogs. They took us at a last minute opportunity. We had a blast!! Highly recommend for a good time. The guides were very friendly and professional. Plenty of land to hunt on, multiple opportunities to harvest. The dogs were awesome

Great communication and experience.
Darin D
Booked a half day morning hunt with a 12 hour notice and had a great experience! We were only sitting in the stand for about 30 minutes when a large group of hogs came right into 25 yards. Couldn’t have asked for a better hunt.
Luis C.
1st time hunting and I chose the perfect spot. Dakota and Cody were awesome guides. I had to leave a review and recommend Westshore Outfitters. If you're looking to hunt this is the place to go.
MIKE K.
We had an awesome time! The hunt was very exciting and we were able to bring our own weapons. They do have one they provide you on the thermal hunt but you can bring your own if you have one. We got the two pigs in under an hour. They were beats as you can see from the photo. The nice thing about West Shore is that they don’t charge extra for trophy hogs at night. We got two trophy’s! Thank you Colby. The staff were great. I just leased 12,000 acres in a hunting club. I won’t be back but anyone looking for an amazing hunt and time. You need to look up Mat at West Shore outfitters. You will not be disappointed…
Jacob T.
Been there twice both times was greatly pleased got multiple boars each time 1 time within half an hour
Brandi W.
If you need a outfitter for hogs this is it! Cody and Coby are amazing! We had a blast! Run the dogs! It's very exciting and worth it!
Joel S.
Great guys to have fun with and just a great quality hunt...
Fred L.
Very fun experience. Everything was as described. Excellent communication with the booking process as well.
Haiden N
This place is pretty awesome hog hunting! We called and they got us in for a hunt within a couple days. This is my son and they made sure he seen a hog. Plenty of them and all different sizes. The guides were also awesome! Not only did they put my son on a hog but they also informed me of things around the area to do while I waited for him. Prices are great! You pay for the hunt, not the size hog you kill. Would recommend 100% to anyone! We also plan on hunting here again, hopefully soon! Thank you so much for an awesome hunt!
Phil P
I took my son hog hunting for his 25th birthday and we both had an amazing time. It was our first time hog hunting so Dakota took great care of us and provided a ton of tips to make sure we had a successful day…and it sure was!!We both ended up with 2 nice hogs and had a blast in the process…can’t go wrong with these guys!!!
Travis B.
The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. Everyone should try this at least once. My father and I had a great time. We each got a hog.
Joshua M.
This makes the 2nd trip I’ve booked with west shore and yet again they did not disappoint, these are some awesome guys honestly I can’t say enough good about them, if you are looking for an amazing hunt at a great price don’t look any further these are your guy's. I will be back for another hunt in the near future no doubt!
Joe A.
Called with a request for an all day hunt with just a couple days notice and Matt fit me in without hesitation and what a hunt it was I got my first wild hog ever and his guides Cody and Colby are OUTSTANDING - top notch place - Highly Recommended
HS A.
I had a great experience with my dad on a hog hunt. The guide got us to where we needed to be and within a couple hours we bagged a hog. Couldn’t ask for anything better, plus I got to spend some quality time with my dad on something he really enjoys. Would definitely recommend to anyone!
Jorge T.
Matt Cody and the rest of the crew were great and made the trip very enjoyable. We drove 5 hours to come visit them for the hunt and it was worth the time. Looking forward to the next one!
Greg K.
Great group of guides we had a blast on our hunt and killed 4 nice hogs! Highly recommended

Matt runs a great outfitter. Cody and the guides are awesome and provided us with an excellent hunt. Both times!! We are returning customers and will be back again soon.

Excellent hunt. Very professional guides and great set up for bowhunters. Shot my first pig with a bow at 20 yards. I will be back.
jeffrey B.
Had a great experience with west shore outfitters. Sat and watched a beautiful sunrise, then, the biggest boar I’ve seen, walked in. He left on the front of The Jeep! This place is just what they say they are, one price any size! Colby then went to work and very professionally took care of the meat. Well done, would highly recommended this operation to anyone. Thanks Colby.
James C.
These guys are great and that's why I have been hunting with them year after year, very satisfied!
bob T.
I booked a thermal hog hunt recently with west shore outfitters and had a great experience. From the moment I arrived and met my guide Colby to the conclusion of my hunt it was fun, exciting and professional. I had been on hog hunts with a couple other outfitters over the years, but this was the most fun and exciting. When you head out with your guide there are no cameras guiding your hunt. It’s you and your guide walking and searching for hogs, a true spot and stalk hunt You carry the weapon while the guide searches for hogs and carries the tripod to shoot from Even if you have no experience with guns and hunting they will help every step of the way. What a great way to have a true adventure in Florida ! Yes I was successful and plan on returning next March for another hunt Thanks again Colby and everyone at West Shore Outfitters!
Joey T.
Amazing hunt! Our guide Colby was great!
Glen R.
Had an excellent hunt with West Shore Outfitters. Cody was very helpful and put us on hogs. The purpose of the hunt was to introduce my niece to hunting and with her being able to take a nice hog has hooked her for life. Thanks again for an outstanding time.
PJ T.
Cody was a great guide for us on taking the dogs to hunt for hogs. The staff knew more than you could ask for and were very personable. They were engaging and entertaining. Looking forward to trying some of the other offerings.
A D.
Another great hunt with west shore , i would suggest a dog hunt !!Great time , Cody &Colby will hook you up .. thanks too Matt..Look forward too next 1 ...
Michael B.
What a great experience!! This was my first time hunting hogs and the team could not have made the process any smoother for me. I decided to do the dog hunt and it was amazing to watch them work. I HIGHLY recommend them and I will be back for another hunt.
David S.
Just an awesome experience! From start to finish the team at West Shore Outfitters provided excellent service. Their team was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. They truly care about providing a great experience. I’ll be back again fo sure.
John M.
Absolutely a great time. Return client and will without a doubt will be coming back. Cody is the best guide I’ve ever had and watching the dogs work is one of the coolest things. Highly recommend these guys.
Brayton C.
West Shore Outfitters was exactly as advertised on their website. Cody set us up in great blinds. Colby expertly dressed out our 2 pigs. Pricing was fair - no hidden charges or unexpected surprises. We had a great time
Lee E.
Great hunt! Everyone is very helpful and friendly. We all shot hogs. We come every year and are never disappointed! Looking forward to next year!
Alex S.
Fun ethical and knowledgeableWe did a night hunt it was worth every penny. Can’t wait to go out and try the dog hunt.
Jacob T.
The guys at WSO are awesome. They made it a wonderful relaxed experience that was totally worth the money. Got two good hogs out of our afternoon hunt, and the chance at a monster during the thermal that I screwed up. If you want the chance for big hogs at a fair price, awesome guides, and some lovable hog dogs then this is the place to go. Will definitely be coming back if I am able.
Troy K.
Had an amazing hunt ... our guide and dogs were top notch .. would and will do again if when we are in the area again .. Definitely recommend...

Unforgettable Hog Hunt at Westshore outfitters.I recently went on a hog hunt at West Shores Outfitters, and it was an unforgettable experience. Everything was well-organized, and the hunt was intense and exciting from start to finish.One of the best parts of the trip was the dog hunting. Watching the dogs work was incredible—they were relentless, skilled, and brought a whole new level of adrenaline to the hunt. The action was fast-paced, and it made for an unforgettable experience.Our guide, Cody, was outstanding. He knew the land inside and out and made sure we were in the best spots for success. His knowledge, patience, and enthusiasm made all the difference. Whether it was tracking, setting up the perfect shot, or keeping the energy up, Cody was top-notch.The land itself was perfect, with plenty of hogs and a great setup for a successful hunt. If you’re looking for an intense and well-run hog hunt, West Shores Outfitters is the place to go—especially if you get to hunt with Cody. Me and my buddies will definitely be back.
Jerry H.
Was a fun experience. The guide was amazing and I'll be back again.
Richard S.
Cody took us out right on time. Wife bagged her first in the first hour and what a hog! Cody cleaned it awesomely. Used the dogs and Cody found us a nice ginger for our second. We had a great time and will definitely be back

Successful morning hunt with West Shore Outfitters. This was my second hunting charter with Dakota, Cody & Colby. These guides know their business and run a professional hunt. Last year was a dog hunt (very exciting), so this year I decided to do a stand hunt. My opportunity came early and Dakota & Colby were there to track and retrieve my hog. I’ll be back next year.
Bob R.
Cody and the guys were great guides. My two sons and I all got a nice hog within the first 1/2 hour of our morning hunt. That made our 1 day hunt extra special.We appreciate WestShoreOutfitters for s great hunt!
gary G.
West Shore Outfitters was great. Good communication right from the start so all details/questions were easy to get answered and figured out. Our guide, Dakota was very knowledgeable and great talking with before and after the hunt. We saw several pigs on our hunt, and ended up going home with a very nice one. Thank you all very much for a great time.
David W.
The half-day hog hunt was an amazing experience. Thank you, Colby, for being a great guide! I was able to get a hog within a couple of hours of being there. I’m looking forward to doing more hunting and fishing trips with you guys soon.
Gregory S.
Brought my wife with me for the first time. Dakota was awesome. I can’t stop talking about doing a stalk hunt with my wife tagging along. The feeling of excitement is more than words can say. West shore outfitters is the way to go.Update 2/1/25. Shot my biggest hog today. Again Dakota put me in the spot. Can’t say enough about West Shore Outfitters. 👍🏻
Dirk V.
What else can I say but these guys are true professionals. The whole setup was awesome I went hog hunting with the dogs and it was great. Great land and if you need rentals or forget anything they got you covered.The guide Cody was awesome super cool and even liked to joke around with us at the times where the action was slow. One of the guys for sure!! I’ll definitely recommend and be back myself soon.
eric A.
What a first class operation. Cody went above and beyond to get us our pigs. Great hunting and even better people.Can’t wait to come back!
Lenny G.
West shore outfitters was amazing! I had originally booked a hog hunt out of blind but later was convinced to hunt with the dogs. WSO easily accommodated my change and Colby took me on a surprisingly challenging hunt! The fast paced action of hunting with the dogs was an exciting change of pace from your typical archery hunt. I would certainly recommend these guys to anyone. They are knowledgeable, fun and are great at their job! Not to mention the dogs were amazing! These guys know how to do it!
Kyle V.
I would like to Thank Matt for running such a great place to hunt. Our guides were Cody and Colby and they were awesome. Two of us went out for an afternoon hunt and then a thermal night hunt. They put us on hogs both day and night. Matt and his staff are knowledgeable and fun to be around. Great experience all around. We will be going back soon and also looking to plan cooperate retreats to his place in near future. Like I said great place to hunt with a staff that knows there business and makes you feel welcome. Can’t wait to go back!
Justin S.
Had a great hog hunting experience! Everything was well organized from start to finish which was much appreciated. Had a great guide, Cody, who helped with whatever I needed and had plenty of opportunities and came out with a successful hunt. Highly recommend!
Nick F.
We had a great experience with Cody as our guide! Him and his dogs got us right on these two hogs, what a rush! Next time I won't even bother with sitting in a stand, the dogs are the way to go for sure. They actually got 4 within an hour, and were ready to keep going. Just wow. Thanks again to Cody and the whole team at West Shore Outfitters!
David B.
This was a great time. All of the guides were professional yet had a fun time. Just remember if you get Dakota he loves cats, and Cody likes to be called Captain Kirk. But seriously, they work very hard to make sure you are successful and that you enjoy your hunt. We will be back to see them.
Abby B.
We had the best time! Our guide Cody was the funniest guy ever. He made our trip a blast! We did the dog hunt, which I would recommend to anyone. It was awesome to see the dogs do what they love to do and way more fun than a hunt in a stand. Everyone in our group was able to shoot a hog. I highly recommend West Shore Outfitters. We will definitely be back!!
Jonathan Q.
Had a great time and experience. My first time hunting and the staff made it a memorable one. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. Highly recommend
Thomas S.
These guys are phenomenal. They set you up for success. This was my second time back and I brought the wife. She had a blast, we're coming back in March.
Joseph M.

Blake S.
My brother and i had a amazing experience with west shore outfitters, they accommodated a awsome last minute thermal hog hunt for us , i would highly reccomend going this route for a good hog hunt , having no trophy fees or random charges was a huge perk . And all of it was very cost friendly.
Jerad H.
Went for a pig hunt. Put me on a ground blind before sunlight and I had plenty of pigs come in and get the corn. Right as it became shooting light, they all took off. A couple hours later, they offered to run dogs for me. I agreed and was put on a big boar and sealed the deal. They handled everything really well and processed the pig quickly. I will be coming back in the future!
JETTIE ROCKS FISHING with MIKE D
THE BEST HUNTING EXPERIENCE I EVER HAD!! My guides were very professional and knew exactly what to do to make my experience hog hunting successful. Ended up with two nice hogs and some great memories. I will 100% be back again and again.
Matt M.
West Shores Outfitters was an amazing hunt. The crew was awesome. My 13 year old had the best time and can not wait to go back. We plan on doing more than just a boar hunt next time.
Marshall B.
My friends and I went on a guided hog hunt with dogs. We had two great meat hogs within an hour. Was a super fun experience, meat tasted great and I will definitely be back in the future. Really beautiful property too.
Jen G.
We had a fantastic time and experience with West Shore Outfitters! Especially loved watching the dogs do their thing.
Matthew W.
This outfit is top notch would definitely recommend and to top it all off 3 legged hunting dog totally bagged my hog. Thank you for an awesome time!

Cody and Colby at west shore outfitters… these are the guys you wanna go with here in Florida. Been with many outfitters in the state and hunted a bunch of hog and these guys are absolutely fantastic. Knowledgeable and super efficient. I Highly recommend a dog hunt. Action packed and as safe as possible. These guys are very passionate about what they do and are very personable, and over all just a good damn to go out with. If you’re looking for a genuine southern hog hunt go with them! Cheers boys! Look forward to doing it again in the near future.

First time with West Shore Outfitters and had an amazing time. My daughter and I drove down from North Carolina for a Thermal Hog Hunt and successfully took 3 hogs. The hunt set up and communication beforehand was excellent and all of our questions were answered. Directions were perfect and we arrived on time without issue. Cody met with us when we got there and went over what we were going to do, he went over safety, and let us get comfortable with the rifle and optics. The hunt was excellent, as he put us on several good hogs/groups of hogs. Cody really went out of his way to make us successful, and you get a feeling right away that he really cares about the hunters having an amazing experience. Colby came out after the harvest and helped us load the animals into a UTV transport the animals back to the base. Cody and Colby set the hogs up for pictures and then very quickly had all of the meat quartered and in my coolers. Both my daughter and I are super excited about this and future hunts with West Shore. Were even planning on fishing and bow fishing with them in the future. Great place to take the kids, great place for everyone. Thanks Cody and Colby, my daughter and I made a great memory with you guys.
Mike B.
Recently did a thermal hunt with my son and a buddy. Our guide Cody did a great job getting us on hogs. Great property and good folks!
Craig G.
Was a great time. My wife got her first hog. The stand was very comfortable and all the guys were very helpful. They cleaned and skinned it in 15 min. I would highly reccomend them and will be back with my kids. Couldn't have been better. Thanks!
Joel W.
Booked a thermal hog hunt with West Shore. Had a successful hunt (2 hogs). Easy booking. Good communication. Plenty of opportunities. Thank you!
John B.
This was my second time using West Shore Outfitters, they never disappoint. I needed to do a meat run and since my hunting area was pretty dry, I knew exact where to go. I had my girlfriend come with me to be my camera woman and I had an amazing guide Cody. There are plenty of hogs and areas to hunt in. I'll be back!!
Man M.
Super cool. Didn’t take long for a big old hog to show up around the feeder.
Chainey
Amazing 1st hunting experience! 100% would come again!
Cooden
Me and my older brother had Cody as our guide and it was great experience! The land was beautiful and well kept, and our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. Colby quartered our hog very quickly and skillfully which was very impressive to watch as he wasted no meat on the boar. With my experience I recommend anyone seeing this to go and have the same amazing experience that me and my brother had ❤️.
Kyle B.
2nd time coming out with two different guides Colby and Cody. The absolute best experience I ever had. Being a first time hunter they walked me and my son through everything we needed to know. One being in a stand with me the other with the dog hunt for my son. Couldn’t ask for a better experience. Friendly, accommodating, quick response, knowledgeable. Welcoming felt like family
John H.
Great experience with very knowledgeable guides. Will definitely be back and I would highly recommend!!
Steven E.
Great experience, great Guides. I arrived in the hottest part of the year (late July). Being from the north I was unaware this was a terrible time to book a hunt. I booked the thermal hunt and was taken out and had a successful guided hunt. It was once the hunt was complete my guide informed me this was horrible time of year to hunt and was glad we had been able to have a successful hunt because the heat had been keeping the hogs from being active. Overall the experience was a quality one. The Guide knew where to go and made my trip to Florida a success. My Guide was also extremely knowledgeable regarding flying with harvested animals and gave me tips on bringing harvested meat onto a plane. Overall the experience was a great one. Arrived at the location. Conducted my hunt. Successfully harvested two hogs. The Guides handled business well and I will gladly spend money again with their organization to go hog hunting.
Katelyn H.
Matt and Cody were great! My husband and I were originally booked with a different outfitter. Series of unfortunate events and bad communication from the other outfitter we had no choice but to cancel our hunt just days before. Upset and feeling defeated I told my husband to just look around to other outfitters and maybe by the off chance we can find someone that will take us. My husband found West Shores and reached out. Responses were quick and honest! They took us last second. Property was well managed and you can see the hard work they put into this business. The dogs they use do their job but are also kind level headed dogs, and you can’t help but smile when you see them working, and loving what they do. If you’re reading this review and you are debating hunting with dogs or not, do it. It makes the experience more fun and the dogs are simply great. Cody was our guide and he gave clear instructions to make sure my husband got his sow down. Communication goes a long way and this outfitter has great communication and just all around good people. We are already talking about our next trip down to hunt with them. Thank you so much Matt & Cody! Happy Hunting!!
Jared H.
After having a terrible experience with another outfitter and some other unforseen events my wife and I found ourselves looking to book a last minute pig hunt. Matt and Cody at West Shore Outfitters were able to help us out! They were fast responding and communication was great. Cody was very knowledgeable, helpful and all around great guide. He recommended we run the dogs since we on a bit of a time crunch and in around an hour I was able to take a nice sow with my bow. My wife and I had a great time and have nothing but good things to say. Next time we plan to hunt in Florida they will be the only outfitter we go to. Would highly recommend and can't wait to go back!
Kevin A
Me and my boy did a full day hog hunt yesterday. We had a great time. We seen a few hogs come in behind us in the morning that we chose not to engage. We asked Colby and Cody if they would run the dogs in the afternoon, and even though they do not normally do that… the weather was perfect and they brought the dogs out. We have never used dogs to bowhunt in the past. I would have to say that was the most action packed and high energy hunt i have ever been on. We tracked a big hog for almost an hour through thick brush and waist high water in some parts. Cody and Colby are the best at what they do. Those boys are very knowledgeable and damn good at tracking those hogs. We ended up successfully shooting 2 big hogs,, one of which (my son shot) is the biggest hog either one of us has ever shot. 100% recommend this place. We will definitely be back💪🏼
Ashley W.
Had an absolute blast, would highly recommend doing a dog hunt. Both guides are very friendly and will work to get you the hog you want!
Kyle H.
Couldn’t be happier with our hunt. Guys put us on some great hogs. Colby was our guide and a total bro. 10 out of 10 would recommend!
Wade K.
Highly recommend the “dog hunt” - my father & myself had an amazing experience!
