About Our Javelina Hunts in Arizona

Most important info about these hunts—landscapes, strategies, costs, and comforts.

Summary & Terrain

Southern Arizona’s Sonoran Desert is prime habitat for collared peccaries, commonly called Javelina. These gregarious peccaries live in tight family groups of 5–15 animals, defending home ranges of roughly 1½ square miles. Their salt-and-pepper coats and low‐to‐the‐ground build allow them to blend seamlessly into desert scrub, washes, and saguaro‐dotted hillsides. Weighing only 35–60 pounds dressed, they may appear larger at a glance, but their keen senses and elusive behavior make them a thrilling desert quarry.

Difficulty & Strategy

Javelina hunts in Arizona are typically conducted via spot-and-stalk, with guides using high-powered optics to glass for groups on ridge tops or along washes. Once a herd is located, hunters must carefully manage wind direction and move quietly through cholla, mesquite, and creosote. Although these hunts are accessible to both rifle and bow hunters—and even crossbow, handgun, or muzzleloader aficionados—their alert nature and camouflage make getting within effective range a satisfying challenge. Success hinges on patience, stealth, and adaptability to ever-changing desert conditions.

Amenities

Javelina hunts in Arizona generally offer a mix of rustic tent camping and more comfortable RV lodging, depending on the outfitter and package. Most guided hunts are based from simple desert or ranch camps where hunters sleep on cots inside canvas tents; these sites rely on natural airflow and carry-in gear, with heating or cooling equipment typically not provided. A few hunts require participants to arrange their own accommodations—often nearby public or private campgrounds—while select packages include on-site RVs equipped with beds and modern climate control. This variety ensures that both backcountry enthusiasts and those seeking added comfort can find a suitable option for their Arizona javelina adventure.

Season & Additional Info

Arizona’s Javelina season runs January through February, including an OTC archery window and general seasons for HAM (Handgun, Archery, Muzzleloader) and rifle. Most outfitters offer 3–5-day guided packages that include a licensed guide, permit assistance, field dressing, and safe transport to and from the hunt area. Trophy-quality mounts often showcase the peccary’s distinctive tusks in snarling full-body poses, while the lean, flavorful meat is prized for sausage preparations such as chorizo or jalapeño-cheese summer sausage. Tags are available online with no draw, making Javelina hunts in Arizona both convenient and rewarding.

Pricing

Arizona javelina hunts typically average around $2,800 per trip. Costs vary according to trip length, accommodation style and guiding format. At the entry level, you’ll find short, group-based hunts staged from basic desert camps where hunters share canvas tents and carry in their own gear. Mid-tier packages generally include single-guide outings, meals in camp, and more structured tent setups or shared RV lodging on private ranches. Premium hunts feature private one-on-one guiding, upgraded RV or air-conditioned cabin accommodations, extended hunt days and full field care—caping, cooling and transport of trophies to a local processor. In every case, most outfitters handle land access, guiding and logistics; hunters should budget separately for license fees and gratuities.

1x1 Javelina Hunt, 3-Day, Spot & Stalk, No Bait
Southern Arizona is home to the Javelina. Hunting seasons for this critter are during January through February. Javelina can be one of the most enjoyable game animals to hunt in Arizona. They are not pigs, nor are they even in the pig family. They are peccaries. Javelina are gregarious animals that live in a tight-knit family group of around 5 to 15 animals. The javelina groups are territorial with a home range of about a square mile and a half. The common name is the "collared peccary" because of a white ring of hair that circles the neck region. Javelina appear to be larger than they really are, but in actuality, they only weigh 35-60 pounds dressed-out. Javelina offer a very challenging hunt for the bowhunter, handgun hunter, crossbow hunter, muzzleloader hunter or even rifle hunter. Spot and stalk is the technique we use to hunt these unique animals. Our guides use high-powered optics to locate a herd. Javelina are low to the ground and blend into their surroundings very well. So, they can often be a challenge to locate amongst the gray desert scrub. Once a group of peccary is located, a stalk can be planned. Hunters must keep the wind in their favor when making a stalk and be extremely quiet in order to get within a desired shooting distance. Because of their large canines, javelina make nice open-mouth mounts. If you are successful, a full-body mount of a snarling peccary (javelina) can be a very unique trophy. The meat from javelina is often made into sausage. Our favorite is jalapeno and cheese summer sausage or chorizo! Archery javelina hunts in January can be combined with archery Coues deer.

Archery Javelina & Coues Deer Combo, 1x1
Southern Arizona is home to the Javelina. Hunting seasons for this critter are during January through February. Javelina can be one of the most enjoyable game animals to hunt in Arizona. They are not pigs, nor are they even in the pig family. They are peccaries. Javelina are gregarious animals that live in a tight-knit family group of around 5 to 15 animals. The javelina groups are territorial with a home range of about a square mile and a half. The common name is the "collared peccary" because of a white ring of hair that circles the neck region. Javelina appear to be larger than they really are, but in actuality, they only weigh 35-60 pounds dressed-out. Our outfit is pleased to offer quality hunting trips for the Coues Whitetailed Deer in southern Arizona near Tucson. The Coues Deer is considered one of the most prized and most challenging deer species for North American trophy hunters. This petite deer is the smallest huntable sub-species of the whitetailed deer and weighs between 70 - 100 lbs. dressed out. Mature bucks normally have 8 total points on the rack. The minimum Coues deer score for Pope and Young is 70 inches and the minimum score for Boone and Crockett is 110 inches. The Coues Whitetail is classified under a separate category in all record books because of its small, tight rack. Even the World's Record typical Coues deer (144-1/8" B&C taken by Ed Stockwell in 1953) would not make it into the Boone and Crockett book if scored and categorized under the Eastern whitetail standards. That is the reason for the separate category for this unique deer species. Hunters that have taken all the species in the "deer slam" usually consider the Coues deer one of most rewarding and most beautiful trophies.
