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!!

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!

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💪🏼

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!
Joe A.
We were out to shoot two pigs, and that’s what we got.Very exciting hunt guided by Colby. My father and I were dropped off at separate blinds in right before dawn. Immediately I had seven hogs feeding 35 yards away, and 30 minutes later I dropped a good sized one.After Colby picked me up and rendezvoused with my father, we cleaned up my hog, then went back out with the dogs to get my father a shot.Watching the dogs work was awesome to see, and after a few pigs were found and left unharmed in search of the right one, the dogs found us a good size one, backed off, and gave my dad a clear shot.Both methods were thrilling, and it was great to experience both in one day. Luck had it that we arrived at 5:45am and were on the road home at 11:30am with plenty of meat.Colby was very friendly, efficient, and seemed genuinely excited to converse with and educate the two of us about the work he does.

No nonsense hog hunting operation.I hunted with them in 2018 and killed an 80lb sow in the afternoon of my full day hunt. So in 2024, to celebrate my birthday, and try out my new suppressor, I made the drive from Miami with my buddy and we booked full day hunts again. Both my buddy and I killed 50lb sows early in the morning, giving us plenty of time to drive back home before nightfall.These guys will get you on a great hunting experience at a great price.

Had a great time with my guide Cody on my thermal hog hunt. I requested info from their site for a thermal hunt a few months ago before my family trip to Florida, the owner Matt was very responsive and helpful in selecting and scheduling this hunt. I also received an email that provided equipment recommendations and driving directions. Cody was also great in communicating the day before I arrived. Within 20 minutes of me arriving, we filled out some forms, went over the rifle, and then headed out to the bait stations. After arriving to the first station, Cody saw two large hogs and was clear on communicating which hog I should shoot. Spent more time filling out the safety forms and payment info then actually hunting, which is how just this stuff goes, lol. Still had a great time that night! I always wanted to do a thermal hunt and this place was pretty affordable. Never hunted with a thermal or a suppressor and was very impressed with their equipment. I would highly recommend this outfitter for a hog hunt. I look forward to booking a fishing charter with this place the next time I get back to Florida.
Scott C.
Had a great time with WSO. Guides Dakota and Cody were awesome and put us on the hogs. First time thermal hunting so got that off the bucket list. Highly recommend hunting with these great guys!
Calvin M.
Had a great time hunting with West Shore Outfitters. Cody was great and set me up perfectly. Drove 2 hrs from Tampa and shot a hog within 10 minutes of getting in the stand. Next time I'll bring the wife. Thanks Cody.

An exclusive experience for first time hunters. With a large variety of game

Had a fun day, plenty hogs and guys went above and beyond to give me a great experience. Can't wait to go again
Thomas S.
My grandpa and I had a great time with West Shore Outfitters on a hog hunt. We seen a ton of hogs almost as soon as we got to the stand, Matt told us exactly what to do to for us to have the best luck and it worked. These guys have a great operation and we’re super helpful throughout the entire process.
Gary B.
West Shore Outfitters is awesome! I’ve hunted with several other outfitters in the area, and these guys are the best. This was our second trip with them. Guides Dakota, Cody, and Colby are great. The entire experience has been great…from booking to picking up our meat from the butcher… Really no reason to go anywhere else for our boar hunts!
Cyrus K.
Awesome and professional guides. As well as one of the best deals In the area.
Chris M.
First hunt and did the half day option. Was quite impressed with the whole operation. Colby and Matt got us sorted right away and made sure we were set up for success. Post hunt they handled everything, while making sure we felt included in process as we requested. Will definitely be going back!
Mark R.
Had a great time with West Shore Outfitters on a hog hunt with friends. Lots of hogs, great service, super experience.
Gary B.
Lots of fun, guides were wicked nice and fun to be around, sitting in a blind is fun and running dogs is even better
Dennis C.
Enjoyed hog hunting with Cody & Colby. We booked a dog hunt. Had a great time. Our guides were very knowledgeable and courteous. I would recommend as well as come back for a future hunt
Kyle S.
Booked a stand hunt with Matt while I was in the area on a family vacation. He answered all my questions honestly and the booking process was easy. He then put me in contact with Cody who would be my guide. Cody called me shortly after to discuss the details. I informed him I would be hunting with a long bow and then we got on the subject of his dogs. He told me he regularly guides bow hunters with his dogs which surprised me as I assumed bows weren’t normally used with dog hunts. I enjoy hunting with dogs any chance I get, so I switched to a dog hunt at that time. Right away we got on a big boar hog with his Black Mouth Cur. Chased it for about an hour, but due to the restrictions of a bow, I was unable to get a shot. With a gun we would have gotten that big pig fairly easily. We then switched to his GSP and got on a good sized sow. Pursued her for a while and eventually was able to get it. The hunt was harder than I thought, which is what I was hoping for. We busted through some nasty stuff trying to put an arrow in a pig. I was scratched up and sweaty when it was over. Codys’ dogs handled amazing. They would bay up a pig but he could call them off before the shot. And Cody, being a traditional bow hunter himself, knew how to put me in the right spot for the shot. I would gladly do that hunt again.
Anthony W.
Cody and Colby were amazing! Had a great fun time. Very personal and fit all our needs as customers. Definitely will go again.
Donna B.
I had a wonderful time with Matt as my guide. Matt is very knowledgeable, prepared and made the experience worthwhile. I would recommend West Shore Outfitters to anyone.Harold Boswell.North Carolina

My nephew and I had a great hunt with WestShoreOutfitters. Our guides put us right on the pigs! Really like the night thermal hunt! Thanks again for a great hunt!
Gary L.
Was a great experience for myself and my son and our friends we were able to experience our sons shoot their first animals ! Plus our guide Dakota made it and excellentExperience tracking the boars after they where shot involving the kids totally recommend using this hunt and using Dakota as your guide very knowledgeable and friendly
Brody M.
My guide was Dakota and I came here to shoot my first hog and it was awesome. I had never shot a gun before and he told me everything I needed to do. He helped us with everything and was very kind.
Eric B.
Awesome Hunt. Colby our guide was great. 3 hunters and we all shot good hogs.
Paul D.
Had a great time hunting with West Shore Outfitters killed a great hog.Saw a bunch. Had fun with Cody. Colby did a great job cutting up the hog. I’ve never seen anyone butcher an animal so quick. These guys have a great operation I would recommend anyone to hunt with them. I will be back next year!
Rebelskull
Thanks guys for a GREAT experience hunting hogs with thermal !! Colby is a great guide and put us on some good hogs. Look forward to seeing you guys again !Gregg B.
david R.
My friend and I hunted there on March 26, 2024. Started out as an all day hunt. I shot my hog in the morning and then we broke for lunch. My friend decided to hunt with dogs in the afternoon, which Cody said no problem. He told us it wouldn’t take long and would likely get a larger hog. The afternoon hunt was very entertaining and my friend shot a big boar about 225 lbs. We will definitely hunt again with West Shore. Cody was very accommodating and makes sure you have a good time. Recommend the dog hunt for more fun. I would like to thank Cody and West Shore Outfitters for a great time.
Kelley E.
This is our 3rd time hunting at Westshoreoutfitters! And what a Great time! Cody has been our guide all 3 times! Can’t say enough about him! Excellent! The new property and area is just perfect! We will be back! Thank you Rick&Kelley Elinski
davisor01
Excellent hunt. As soon as I arrived Cody greeted me and took me to the blind. I bow hunted and the set up was perfect with many shooting lanes and a feeder at 20 yards. Saw 6 pigs and took a nice one. Cody did a great job putting me on the pigs. I’ll be back next year.
Chris S.
Great guys! This was our 2nd year with them and we couldn’t be happier. We plan on coming every year. They’re great with kids and just plain fun to be around! Good dudes! We’ll be back.

I wanted to complete my turkey Grand Slam. I booked my spring hunt thru West Shore Outfitters. Matt from West Shore Outfitters worked with me on available dates and advised me on the legal stuff like licenses and even how to transport my shotgun on the flight from Iowa. West Shore Outfitters has a number of guides with access to multiple properties. The guides know the properties and have patterned the birds. As anyone would want on their hunt, my guide had options of which property and which birds he wanted me to hunt. The first day the birds went in the opposite direction off the roost. My guide made some adjustments and I harvested my Grand Slam by 8:30am the second day. I’m doing a full mount and my guide has had many clients do the same. He showed me how to take my harvest on the plane. My brother-in-law could not come with me, but I will have him book with West Shore Outfitters when he is ready to get his Osceola.I also hog hunted thru West Shore Outfitters. My flight had me come in two days before my scheduled turkey hunt. I had some time to kill. I went thermo night hog hunting the first night in Florida. I have never hunted hogs so totally new experience for me. The guide was patient and explained everything to me multiple times until I was completely comfortable going into the field. I was able to harvest a big hog and play with new technology at the same time. Everyone needs to try it at least once. I went day hog hunting the next day and enjoyed all the experiences the forest shows you while you are in a stand. I also harvested another hog on my day hunt. The guides are very experienced in setting me up and locating my kills.
Joe H.
Had an awesome time ....once again wso put us on the pigs ...got a couple of fat meat hogs. Thanks Cody
James F.
I had an amazing experience with Cody and the dogs! If you are hunting for the first time, dogs are the way to go!
Ameed R.
As usual 5/5. Been using West Shore Outfitters with the past 8 years, every time we have an amazing hunting experience. The guides were very friendly and professional .Thank you Cody will see you soon for another amazing hunt.
Cherish G.
I had my first experience Hog hunting yesterday! CODY was our guide and he was absolutely the best! Very friendly, punctual and informative. I learned so much!! I can’t wait to come back, such an awesome day!
Grant G.
Highly recommend!!! Guides Cody, Colby and Dakota are great guys and Matt was a pleasure to plan with. Can’t wait for our next hunt.
Adam J.
Had a great time hunting with west shore outfitters. Our guide Conner was awesome and extremely knowledgeable and talented not only with turkey hunting but with the land that we were hunting
rex C.
I booked a hunt and got everything as promised. There were tons of hogs and way more than what I've seen at guided TX hunts. They are very experienced and can help anyone from beginner to seasoned hunters. My guide Cody had the hog in my cooler within 30 minutes from when I shot it. You are paying for experience and in a hog rich environment. I will be bringing more people back with me next year. You won't be disappointed in this investment!
The M.
Absolutely incredible time at Westshore Outfitters. Matt and his guides are so awesome. Highly qualified and professional for what they do. You hunters out there won't be disappointed. Best of the best!!!
Jeff H.
Matt is punctual and has great properties to hunt!!! I’ll be back again next year. I love kicking off the season in Florida!!!!
Rick L.
We enjoyed our hog hunting experience with excellent guides. Matt was great to work with for scheduling.We also had the opportunity to experience the bow fishing. Both adventures were exhilarating. Informative and helpful guides. 5 stars on both the hunt and the fishing!!!!!!
Jerry H.
I’ve been on multiple hog hunts in multiple states, but this was by far the best. I done the stand hunt in the morning, seen 2 hogs just getting to the stand, but then nothing. Went on the dog hunt in the afternoon and got the boar pictured. Couldn’t be happier with the total package. Guides were super, and understood my time constraints and worked with me for the best hunt ever.Thanks again
Adam C.
The whole experience from start to finish was awesome! My uncle and I had a good time! The guides we had were amazing and definitely made this trip well worth it. Can’t wait to come back!
Greg H.
I took my two grandsons on a hog hunt and they had the time of their life. We did the dog hunt , the gun hunt and the thermal hunt . They killed 12 hogs and are ready to go back. Cody was our guide and he made them feel right at home. We will definitely be going backThanksGreg

Started with hunting from blinds the first day. Great experience and we managed to get one hog that day. Switched it up to hunting with dogs day 2. Got 3 hogs that day and had a blast.Great experience overall, awesome staff and a wealth of fun. Will be using these.guys again.
CheddarSnot
Had two days of hunting boars, both were great! First day shot 1 boar in a blind, second day went hunting with dogs and shot 3. Amazing experience
Brandon M.
My guides were great! The Experience was fantastic! Professionalism, top-of-the-line! Definitely coming back to these guys

Had a great all day hunt with my group. The guides are great and know what they are doing. Awesome time
chad B.
We had a great time. Professional staff and we all got along very well. Would definitely book with you guys again.
Daniel P.
Great experience, would highly recommend.
Adam Bryant, I.
Hog hunt with dogs! Just do it.I could stop the review at that. But I’ll go in a little more. Matt and his team of Dakota, Cody and Colby are top tier! Very professional and friendly. In between hunts I enjoyed talking bowhunting with those guys.I did a 2 day hunt. First day I sat in a comfy bow hunter friendly box blind. Also very convenient for us self film guys and gals. I had hogs on top of me before first light as I was setting up! But as with big deer, big hogs are weary of feeders. Second day I asked to do a dog hunt and after a brief conversation to make sure we were all on the same page, buddy it was on! The dogs they have (Tito and Ringo) were AMAZING. They were on the hogs quickly. I was able to arrow 2 BIG BOARS. I can’t wait to do this hunt again!
Rachel A.
this was one of the greatest experiences of my life. it was my first time going on any sort of hunt and the people were super chill and knowledgeable. they even had the option for me to go out longer and find one when i couldn’t get a shot in earlier. They truly love what they do and made the experience. well definitely be back. 😊
Andrew C.
Went on a half-day hog hunt with these guys over the weekend and had an excellent time! Managed to bag a 130lb sow, which Dakota expertly broke down for me before I left. My friends and I really had a blast (pun intended) and will certainly be back in the future for a longer session!
Cody P.
Amazing time you won’t be disappointed, Cody and Dakota took care of our group. Nature was beautiful and the hogs were big. What more could you want?
Samantha
You looking for a great hunt?!?! West Shore Outfitters is no joke!! Cody and his crew will put you on these slobs! Make no mistake, there dogs live for this and I see why!! Be back next year boys!!!
JON E.
Had a great time. Nothing is 100% in hunting, I saw 6+ hogs and was able to harvest 1. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly. They even quartered my hog. The hide and facility was clean and build well.
Todd C.
Booked a hog hunt with west shores outfitters and they are definitely a 5 star outfit. We had 3 hunters and us were successful. Would definitely recommend these guys to anyone wanting to kill some wild hogs. We will definitely be back next year.
Courtney C.
We had an awesome time hunting hogs with West Shore Outfitters. The guides were all great and very professional. Would highly recommend hunting with these guys, we will be back!
Jared A.
Awesome experience! I started with the full day hunt where you sit in a stand for the day and saw tiny hogs and let them pass. At lunchtime when I met back up with my guide he recommended doing the hunt with dogs instead and we decided to go that route. Needless too say it was more fun than I’ve ever had hunting, the dogs where very seasoned hunters and the guide/handler was very professional. We pushed a huge sow out of the brush about 30 minuets into the dog hunt and I took her. Highly recommend this business for hog hunts.
Lee E.
Great hunt! Everyone is very helpful and friendly. We all shot hogs, including a 250 lb boar. We come every year and are never disappointed.
price A.
100% amazing place and time. We scheduled an all day hunt but after a slow morning our guide asked if we were interested in upgrading to the dog hunt, and what an experience. Cody, Dakota, Colby and their hounds are absolutely amazing. They treated everyone like we had known them for years. This was our first time but will definitely not be our last god willing. Thanks guys for making my sons Christmas present so amazing.
John K.
Easy arrangements, directions map to hunting location worked great with my IPhone. Really enjoyed the hunt, my guide and others on site. Took the full day hunt and shot a male in the afternoon. Thanks!!!
Ryan D.
Excellent day hunting.4 hogs in just a couple of hours.Absolutely fantastic trip.Thanks again
Thomas Selvig T.
Had a blast with thermal predator night hunt. Nice and clear communication with the pro hunter/guide. Not my last visit!
Jon B.
Fantastic day. Great way to introduce my daughter to hunting larger game. Cody and Colby both did a great job. Definitely suggest the full day for pigs.
Kyle B.
First time hunter Colby had taken me and my son out. Walked us through the steps broke everything down. Gave me huge confidence to get a hog. Talking with him was like talking with family. Absolutely had the time of our lives. Most definitely coming back again
Catherine F.
This was my first hog hunt and hopefully not my last! Everyone was so kind and respectful even though I was inexperienced. Thank you for a fun afternoon!
Michel S.
We enjoyed every aspect of our hog hunt and will certainly be back. Colby, our guide, was professional and went above and beyond to make sure our experience was everything and more. Overall, two thumbs up. The property was awesome and could've spent all day in the tree stand. We're hoping to return for a spot and stalk and/or chase some coyote. FWIW - the hog hunt prices indicated on Westshore's website reflect cash only. The charge was more for a credit card.
Stephen Sheehan S.
Had a blast! First time hunting for both me and my son. Both of us got a hog. Guides Cody and Colby did a great job.
Neal S.
Great hunt with Cody and Colby. It was me and my dad’s first time hunting had a great experience. Cody has a lot of knowledge and makes sure you get a good hog. I found my hog within about 15 minutes with the help of the dogs. The second hog we found was to small and Cody said save your shot we will find you a good one. Cody showed a care for his customers time and money. My father and I look forward to our next hunt.
Rashad F.
Shout out to west shore out fitters for taking care of me on my birthday. Definitely got more than I bargained for. Went on a dog lead hog hunt and enjoyed every second of it. I'll definitely be coming back for another round.#Hunt #Clean #Cook
Brandon D.
Cody and Colby helped me out today, they were great. It was an awesome experience. I grew up hunting squirrels, rabbits, etc. But I had yet to go hog hunting. Initially I just scheduled the basic day hunt. I wanted to sit alone in a blind and listen to the forest. Just as the morning sun broke and I could see further than just afew feet, my first hog crept out of the bushes about 25 yards from me. I shot it where they suggested I should, it took two steps and dropped. Perfect size meat hog. After that I texted my guide and said I wanted to go out with the dogs. We hopped in the side by side with 3 bay dogs and I ended up getting two big badass hogs with big ol cutters. It’s an adrenaline rush, charging into the bushes with the dogs barking and the hog snortin. 10/10 Highly recommend.
Barbara & John C.
Hog hunt was awesome. Dakota & Cody were great guys & real-deal pro hunting guides.. can't say enough about how safe and how good they made the overall experience. Plan to be back when other friends/relatives into hunting visit us in Florida.
Cameron R.
Once again had a great time with Cody. We went back and could not have been happier with experience and knowledge that these guys have for hunting.
Dustin K.
Cody, Colby, and Dakota you made it a great hunting experience again. Hope it doesn't take me 4 years to get back down there again. The new location is badass!
Chris H.
An amazing hunt with some good ole boy guides! Loved every minute of it!
Hogan O.
I’ve been here two times and had a great time with both trips! I will be back agin!
Carly Z
Awesome experience and hunt! Will be back again next year!
Eric R.
Cody and Dakota showed us a great time. What a great time hunting with the dogs!
Rob K
Great, successful hunt for my buddy and I. We both harvested a pair of boars, definitely could have had more. Our guide Cody did a terrific job getting us to position, providing instructions. Good clean sight lines for shots. Great stands. Did the dog hunt, highly recommend. His dogs are incredible! He also quickly and neatly quartered the hogs. Recommend this service to anybody.
Joni F.
This was my first hunt and it was a great experience! My dad, Jay, and I had a full day hunt with Cody being our guide. Cody was an excellent guide. We saw lots of nice size pigs and had a really great experience.
Jay G.
I booked a hog hunt for 1-26-2022 and this was my first time doing this type of hunt. Cody was my guide for the day. Although I did not get a hog it certainly was no fault of Cody or West shore outfitters. For Florida the weather was rainy windy and very cold. It is almost impossible to get bored on stand as turkey, quail, doves and MANY, MANY hogs show up throughout the entire day, but the hogs, in my case, were most active from 2pm until dark. Do not forget bug spray no matter how cold. I am going to book another hunt here for sure. I've hunted with West Shore at least 5 times since my first trip. The new location in Fort McCoy is loaded with many quality hogs and Colby, Cody and Dakota have always treated my son, daughter, my son in law and myself with total class and will do everything to help the hunt be safe and successful.In my opinion there is no hunting experience this exciting and action packed for this pricing anywhere. As long as I'm breathing I'll be bringing new hunters to West Shore to break them into the sport, but darned I wish I was behind the rifle myself a bit more lol. Ps, my most recent hunt was 1-2-24. I'll be booking another outing for my daughter real soon too.
Caleb D.
Called and booked a hunt guide called a day before the hunt to check in and answer any questions very detailed email so very little questions hunted the morning in a box blind with my bow had plenty of pigs around within minutes of getting dropped off shot one at first light waited alittle while called the guide came and picked me and my hog up and then went out with the dogs and shot a nice mature boar with my bow dogs are very good along with the guides very knowledgeable and accommodating will be back
Mike H.
Hey, this was a great experience for those who are looking to do a hog hunt. Highly recommend hands down.
craig W.
Came down to Florida to spend Christmas with my parents and we booked a Hog Hunt for my 2 sons. My Father sat in a blind with one and I sat in a blind with the other one. We saw plenty of hogs and had a great memorable hunting experience with West Shore Outfitters. The Guides (Cody and Colby) were knowledgeable and personable. Great atmosphere and we look forward to future hunt's with them.
Lisa G.
West Shore Outfitters is a gem! I used them for an evening hunt and had a fantastic experience. Communication was seamless from start to finish, and Matt and Cody took the time to answer all my questions, were responsive to my requests, and are professional and extremely knowledgeable about hunting Florida wildlife. I would absolutely use West Shore Outfitters again and am already thinking about bow fishing with them during my next trip!
Robert W.
Everyone from the owner down made this a remarkable experience. Check them out. You will not be disappointed.
Brody N.
First time hunting, did the thermal scope hunt. Guide was safety orientated and we manage to get a good size boar. Would highly recommend.
victor P.
Great time, definitely gonna book another hunt
Eric R.
Just came back from a Hog hunt with them and had a great hunt. So many hogs multiple shot opportunities but I waited in the stand and got a good one. The guides don’t rush you and tell you up front harvest the one you want no rush. Great outfitter best bang for your buck.
Orin C.
Myself and son and grandson did a hog hunt with dogs recently with West Shore and had a great time . Matt and Cody were truly professional guides--with detailed knowledge of the animals, excellent dogs and gracious attitudes---i have hunted with many guides elsewhere in Florida and across the country and West Shore is as good an experience as I have found anywhere. Their hog hunts over dogs are to be particularly recommended.
William S.
4 of us went on a night hunt last night, the guides were super, they got us on the game, showed us what to do, were organized, safe and a lot of fun. We got our game and were back at camp in an hour and a half, including tracking and recovering a wounded animal. They cleaned our kill while entertaining us with hunting stories and history of the area. What a pleasant experience, we’re going to go again with more of our friends. Can’t forget to mention the great dogs too.

Dec 16, 2023 - I'm a repeat customer and always have a memorable experience hunting with Matt's outfit. On 12/16 I shot a hog in with a lever action and iron sites. This method was something I always wanted to do and was successful because of Cody's instructions.After returning to the camp with my kill, Cody invited me to come along with another client to watch dog track hunt and using a handgun up close. This was an addition new and great experience I'll remember for life.Cody is a true professional and the entire outfit and property is a spectacular experience.I can't wait for the trip to Westshore outfitters.Oct 2019 - We live locally and did the night thermal hunt for hogs. Within minutes of stepping out of the jeep and into the trails there were many target opportunities. At night the animals are very active and its pretty cool while stalking to hear them grunting, fighting and foraging all around throughout the area.Night hunt was worth the experience. We enjoyed the benefit having cover of darkness to sneak up close and select a shot.Dakota and Colby were our guides and both are absolute professionals and sincere pleasure to hunt with. I highly recommend Westshore and will definitely be returning.
