I was hunting wild boar on Garland's new game preserve. But, here we were crawling through the swamp heading towards the squealing sounds of wild boars fighting. It may be one of the best-kept secrets in the Midwest.
Most preserves specialize in one particular animal or trophy species.
Open for its first full year, Doug Roberts, Garland Safari's hunt manager, says they are quite happy with the acceptance in the first full year. The word is getting out. It's an interesting mixture with the golf, the four-star reputation and now the hunting preserve, but we're finding that it works well. Everybody can find something to do and have a good time. Boars pretty much move around whenever they feel like it.
