Wildgame Innovations Hog Review

The Wildgame Innovations Hog Made a Bold First Impression

The Wildgame Innovations Hog is Wildgame Innovations’s offering in the saturated world of hog attractants. Promising an irresistible aroma, it claims to draw in even the most stubborn boars and sows. The claim of having pigs “rootin’ for days” after using the attractant sparked my curiosity.

After years of hunting and guiding, I’ve seen my fair share of attractants come and go. I was looking for something to consistently bring hogs into a particularly stubborn area of my property. I wanted to find a product with minimal effort required to consistently bring the hogs in.

Upon receiving the 5lb bag of Wildgame Innovations Hog, the first thing that hit me was the smell; it’s a potent, sweet, and earthy aroma. The granular attractant itself seems well-mixed. I also like the simple packaging. Compared to liquid attractants, the granular formula seemed less messy and easier to handle.

Other attractants I’ve used include liquid hog wild and various homemade corn-based mixes. I chose Wildgame Innovations Hog because of its granular form. This promised easier distribution and a longer-lasting effect compared to liquids. I also like that it contains ingredients that are not just corn.

My initial impression was cautiously optimistic. The smell was promising, but I’ve been fooled before. I was eager to put it to the test and see if it lived up to the hype.

Real-World Testing: Putting Wildgame Innovations Hog to the Test

First Use Experience

I tested the Wildgame Innovations Hog in a heavily wooded area known for hog activity. I scattered about half the bag over a 20-foot diameter area near a known wallow. The conditions were dry, with temperatures in the mid-70s.

The ease of use was excellent; simply open the bag and spread the granules. Within 24 hours, I noticed increased rooting activity in the treated area. I was not expecting such fast action.

The biggest surprise was the sheer number of hogs that showed up. Several sounders tore through the area in the following days. The wallow became significantly larger and more frequently used.

Extended Use & Reliability

After a month of using Wildgame Innovations Hog, the results have been consistently positive. The area remains a hog magnet, with frequent visits and significant rooting activity.

Despite several rain showers, the attractant seemed to maintain its effectiveness for several weeks. The only sign of wear was the disappearance of the granules as the hogs consumed them. The Wildgame Innovations Hog outperformed other attractants. These attractants only had a few days of effectiveness.

Maintaining the site was simple; I just added a fresh application of Wildgame Innovations Hog every few weeks. I could easily and consistently keep them coming back. It’s easier than lugging corn. The Wildgame Innovations Hog outperforms.
