need to stop by www.lonestarbowhunter.com
They offer great hunts for members. The hog hunt in June is a 2 day hog hunt for $100 which includes the bunkhouse stay.
Stop by and take a look.

Canadian bow hunter (first year back after 7 off) There are feral hogs here about 1-1/2 hours north of where I live and they are considered pests/ vermin and have no season bag limit and such. Just have to secure permission from a farmer to get an area to go. I can here the laughter now when i tell him I will be using a bow. Any suggestions on a proper War head for such?

Just about any broadhead will perform well these days. Just make sure that whatever you choose meets any legal size requirements.
I'm not a big fan of mechanical heads (where blades open on impact), but I know several people that are.
If you are going to bow hunt, please carry a decent first aid kit. You'd be surprised at how many people have sliced a thigh or hand on a broad head. They ARE razor sharp, after all.
good luck and good hunting....

Minimum here is 7/8" wide, minimum of 2 non serated blades for hunting any game large or small that you have to purchase a licence for. This restriction does not apply to Varmints or non protected species and feral hogs are considered vermin and are not subject to the above law. I am leaning towards a four blade arrangement of about 125 grains that should give me all the cutting action I need plus I am in the draw for archery Moose this year and I will need a large tough broad head If I get the Bull tag I lust after.
I know the cutting potential of a broad head first hand or shall I say on my hand 10 stitches worth. I always have a first aid kit when hunting gun or bow and have needed it several times over the years better safe than sorry. I follow a simple rule if you can't shave with it don't hunt with it.
