I spent a lot of time in the past year or so trying to organize a hog hunting trip for a few Army buddies. Was looking more for an eradication, shooting trip, as opposed to a trophy hunt. We eventually found what we were looking for, and the hunt went great.
We went into town several days to the local diner, for lunch or breakfast. Two guys from Pennsylvania, and two guys from Indiana. The guys from PA sound like they are straight out of a movie about the Amish. I guess the accents gave us away, because then people started inquiring why we are there. The locals were actually amazed that we drove a thousand miles, and were paying to shoot hogs.
Within about 10 minutes, we had exchanged cell phone numbers with the mayor, and a couple of ranchers. The people were extremely nice, and very willing to help us find more hogs if we needed.
This might be an exception rather than the rule, but I was very impressed with the people I met from The lone Star State!
